LED LIGHTS looking for help

What are the best bulbs to put in the factory sockets for the sidemarker and parking lights, or is just better off to buy the sealed lights with leds.

Re: LED LIGHTS looking for help

I'm wondering this myself. The lights on my truck are really dried out and faded so they need to be replaced. Ive been looking at the full LED replacements and the originals with LED bulbs but haven't decided yet. I'm leaning toward the LED and if I don't care for them the originals style are not to awfully expensive .

Re: LED LIGHTS looking for help

I just put in 194's from superbrightleds.com in my side markers. I have them in my 69 Burb and in my 92 firebird. They are a lot brighter than stock and should have a lot longer life than incandescents. If you do go with them, get the same color LED as the plastic they go behind instead of white. It will make it look like a richer color, not as washed out

Is there anything else you have to change, as far as electrical to run LEDS?
