LED Lights: Has anyone modified their Crossfire?

Thank you to everyone who offered their opinions on my original HIDs posting.

Next Question: Has anyone retro-fitted their Crossfire with LEDs whether exterior or interior lights? Any opinions?

Be careful with LED taillights.

I was behind another member who had LED taillights at Woodward last year.....In the daylight the brake lights were next to impossible to see. Had a couple of close calls.

Apkano is right. LED's as a retrofit can be a bit tricky. The direction the little lamps put out their light and the way it reflects from the inside reflective surfaces is hard to guess.

These guys sell a bunch of different styles of side-firing and end-firing types. And combination of the two. I think we need side-firing but it can get pretty expensive to guess wrong! Apkano's guy probably had the wrong style.

And don't forget the large load resistors you will need!
