Hey we recently received some new product of LED replacement bulbs. I was wondering if there was interest for a GB for them.

Some of the ones we have
http://search.stores.ebay.com/VEXMO...opZ1QQfsubZ334614011QQsaselZ101276101QQsofpZ0

This GB will allow for better pricing then what is listed above.

I have the 5 wLED 194's in both my Supras, from SuperbrightLEDs.com and they're just as bright..

$5 each if i recall correctly..

If we can get some SUPER BRIGHT 1157's for the brakelights, or side mounted 1156's for the signals, then that'd be good..

Nope not I. Very bad luck with 194's LEDS on my DD (CTS-V) witch get used every day. I am on my 3rd set for the front running lights (always on with car) and 2nd set for rear license plate lights (on with head lights). They work great for about 2-4weeks then they start to blink on and off, then just stay off. I will be going back to regular bulbs when I get off my lazy ass to change them................AGAIN. They are a PITA.

As for the 3157's, 31 LED bulbs, in the reverse lights they seem to work fine. But they don't stay on much, there maybe on for 15 seconds each day.

Just my 2 cents about LEDS

did leds in my accord dash cluster.. nice but if i could found a bulb that was equally bright and colored i would go for that.. but turn signal and such leds are no prob for me....assuming i dont have to change as often as oil.

If your LED prices were cheaper than the prices I'd pay at SuperbrightLEDs.com, then I'd be interested. If not.......well, you know.

I need to look over pricing the prices on ebay are not the prices for the GB for sure. It will be less. The lights also have warranty I just need to find out the exact conditions.

I like the bright blub that you had on your supra before for parking light. I didnt remember they were LED though, do you remember what kind of bulbs they were? If the price for these bulbs are affordable then i'll be in for a set. I want some brighter reverse bulbs though

That was a piaa bulb. It gave out a purple tint. Those are about $15

I am going to try and get a GB price list up today and see if people are still interested.

do these LEDs need to be amped in any way? are they in that photo up there?
i have a green LED(i dont even know if its really a LED,hah) lighting up my boost gauge.
it's so dim i use my stock boost gauge at night.
suggestions?
this might lead me to take part in this possible GB, so its not totally off topic

What you need to do is open up the boost gauge and change it out with a super bright LED which you can get at any electrical store or maybe i can even mail it to you if I have any laying around. Just check to see what the diameter of the led is.
