Just a note that I think the first car sold in America with all LED 
lamps was the Cadillac Deville.  Had them for many years.  I mention 
this because a lot of people get down on American cars, and GM in 
general, but Cadillac has been quietly dominating the big luxury car 
market it runs in and building quite dependable and nice, with most of 
the newest technology and yet no things like the "knob" that BMW foists 
on people.    I do not want to get any sort of war going over what cars 
are good or not, but Cadillac has been building quite nice vehicles that 
sell well, don't look as wierd as some (Bangle butt anyone?) and like 
the '96 SHO the style is growing on the public in general.  Plus they 
have those neat LED lights!
