By the way folks, lest anyone castigate me for simply showing
the same problem LEDs that have been the target of so much criticism,
please scroll down a bit on the hyperlink. My comments are directed at
the replacement lamps that are based on SURFACE MOUNT LEDs, *NOT* the
lamps at the top of the page that are merely clusters of conventional
LEDS. The lamps at the top of the page would be highly directional, and
therefore not well suited to our LBCs.

Has anyone tried these?

These are much more reasonably priced, and have an
omni-directional array that *seems* like it would solve the
directionality and brightness issues. They fit the existing sockets.
Like all LED lights, you would need to use an electronic flasher rather
than a thermal flasher, but other than that, they seem like drop ins,
yes?
But as to the legality question, well, you are on your own.
