LED tails?
on some of the newer cars they re using LED tails.. i saw in a commercial how they light up like 7 tenths of a second faster than our traditional bulbs which blah blah blah leads to like an extra 20 feet or something if your so far away. anyways.. are there any ways to convert our tails into LED tails, obv with some work?

considering the cost/work necessary, I don't see how LED'* are worth it since we dont have clear taillights. Is the bulb turning on faster that cool of a mod? someone justify please!

LED'* are also generally brighter, they draw less current and they look cooler.
Doesn't matter if they are not clear. The red will shine though just as well

Plus, from the standpoint of this question, I believe the point is safety rather than coolness factor.

If you just want to plug and playish...
Just get the bulbs form www.Autolumination.com
I have them in my SE. there brighter then the stock bulbs in my SSEi
But in any car with a bulb monitor it may make it see the bulb as bad.

I cleared the tails in my 90 and put in LEDs looks cooler/brighter, only draw back is my stupid light monitor says I have lights out, I got them at autozone, pretty sure you can get them at pretty much any auto parts store
