Hey man, really enjoy your GA updates. Wanted to ask you though which exact bulbs did you buy from autolumination (3watt Superstar bulbs?). Also did they require any modification to the bulb/harness to make them work with no problems. I bought a set of LED tail lights and was thinking of buying some LED bulbs for the turning/reverse lights to complete the LED look. I'd appreciate your thoughts on it. Thanks.

@lcfan214 I wouldnt recommend them. The reason why is because im not even using mine anymore. A couple diff reasons. 1: I had fitment issues. They dont like the wiring harness for the taillights and made a habit of popping out of the harness socket all of the time. 2: LED's burn at a lower temp than normal bulbs, therefore the car thinks that your bulbs are out and does a fast tick/flash. You can fix this by hooking up resistors to your lights and what not.

@rpo305 Thanks for the advice. I thought something like what you mentioned would happen. I guess I'll stick with incandescent bulbs for now. Are you still using your clear lenses tail lights with regular colored bulbs then?

[rpo305]

@lcfan214 No prob, I still have the clear tails and I have chrome bulbs that light up red. Love them.

i will get the white lights for the tails

[flipskater1369]

wait so with these tails the brake lights light up white if you dont replace the bulbs?

[rpo305]

@flipskater1369 Yes thats correct. You actually have to buy new blubs for them because the ones that are included light up a soft white. Well worth the buy though.

[michaelmiley21]

[rpo305]

@michaelmiley21 You'll get more visibility with blue.
