Does anyone know where I can find LED brakelights/taillights/turn signals for my Connie?
I can't find them on the Net....

I would not recommend getting these. I recently tried it and it is so dim that it is dangerous. They had them at my local Pep Boys. Look here: www.4apc.net Seriously, you're wasting time and money. It does look sweet with the flash, but it just isn't bright enough....especially in day time. But to each his own.

I tried those LED's for about a day. THEY SUCK. Almost had some punk arse high school bozo in a ricer level my tail end. Stick with stock, or even cooler, design your own. Viva La Contour

ooooooooookaaaaaay....
Does anybody know of some GOOD ones I can find? I didn't know that they weren't as bright- especially when the whole idea is that they are supposed to be BRIGHTER than OEM...
That sucks.

$H!T I just bought those damn things today at a local shop and then I read this thread! Boy does that suck! So the American Racing Product tail lights suck huh?!?!  That really pisses me off to no end! (I'm not really not that mad...)
I know the SVT is a bad A$$ car, but you don't have to follow me home just to tell me.
I know.

The LED brake lamps are bright. But they are intended for use in clear lenses, like the Altezza ones. It clearly states this on the package. Our lenses are red so less light can get out.
