LED Tailight kit

[Bitsyncmaster]

Something I was wondering about - we had a car in here with all LED tail lights. Also had an aftermarket radio and rear power antenna. Hitting the brakes, turn signals etc. the LEDs threw so much trash into the electrical system that it would blank the FM radio on brakes, and significantly interfere with it with just takil lights or backups.

Anyone else seen this?

Unless those LEDs have switching regulators, that should not happen. LEDs are a constant current even when turning on or off. Incandescents have a very large surge current when you turn them on.

No noise issue that I have noticed. I still have the Craig in it.

The Only LED noise I get are from LED Traffic signal's. They do not not play well will certain lower end FM frequencys. Seems to be about 50' radius from the signal light. that's in my DD though.

I'm going to go ahead with initial run of 8-10 Kits. I have 4 Confirmed Interested, PM me if you are Interested...

All Leds will be 45 SMD (Including Reverse) With the Taillight Remaining 18. Also Included is manufactuer 1 Yr Warranty!!!

What about including a pair of 1157 amber turn signals too?

1156 Amber 45SMD Rear Turn Signals are included

I meant 1157s for the front turn signals. The dual filament ones. It would be cool to call it an 'exterior package' rather than just taillights. Maybe the side markers too? I really don't like the LEDs I bought for my side markers. Too dim.

I'll get a good look at Dennis's car at the open house then. If I like what I see you can count me in as interested then, but I'd *really* prefer the brighter one for the reverse lights.

I changed the reverse Leds to the brighter 45 SMD

Great to hear! I still wont fully commit until I see them in Dennis car though. Just 10 more days. I'll also second the question about the front turn signals. They are the only large bulbs left untouched, why not just go for the whole thing?

Regarding the smaller bulbs for the makers, I'll curious what Tom Niemczewski's new boards will be like with the sideways firing LEDs.

Yep, I have aftermarket stereo with a power amplified HIDDEN antenna (not a rear power antenna), along with 3rd LED brake light with a flasher unit. I *think* most of my static/noise is from the flasher unit or the power amplified antenna. I have not yet troubleshot it yet, but I'm going to start with the antenna since I don't get good reception with it anyway.

Do not get your LEDs from superbright. You are WAY overpaying. Get these - I have them installed in my car and are great. Nick (LS1) has seen them, and I am confident he'd vouch that they're outstanding.

Red ones for brake and running:

Amber for turn signals:

White for reverse lights:

Send them a message and explain you want to combine shipping; they did it for me. Took about a week to get all my lights in the mail.

Just ONE....ONE LED from SuperBright is $20 before shipping. You can get all the red bulbs you need (6) for $15 before shipping.

I'll take video for anyone who wants to see before they buy.
