LED replacement tail/brake light bulb?

#1 PostAuthor: rickm » Wed Jan 24, 2018 3:42 pm

Can anybody point me in the direction of an LED tail/brake bulb that will just slot into a standard J rear light assembly? (and actually work !)

I've had a quick search of this forum with no luck.
Google search brings up plenty of options for bulbs, but little indication as to fitment.

Great stuff, thanks :up

As the standard bulbs are white, I presume these red ones will just shine even redder?
Would white LEDs work as well, or would they be too "white" for the standard bulb cover/lens?

I would use red colour leds,white ones tend to be a bit too white if that makes sense!

PM me if you are still not sorted. I can get white ones.
