I finally finished converting all my lights to LED.
(***except I went back to halogen
on my headlights,
i just liked their penetration and spread better than LED)
In general LEDs are much, much brighter, use very little power and should last a long time. Because you "color match" the lights to their respective covers, the overall effect is much more vivid color brightness.
the front marker/turn signals are white multi LED and are impressively bright.
the rear turn signals are red & a lot brighter than the old incandescent.d
(*** here's a classic Murphy's law: I spent a half day wiring in a hoppy trailer wiring harness to combine the tail lights/brake & turn signals, but when I took it to the shop & asked them to check the electricals. The mechanic was very proud to report he had removed an "incorrect harness and now the lights work the way they are suppose to":
I took it on the nose and said thanks). But with the new LED's , being as bright as they are, I don't feel the need to increase the # of brake lights for more visual impact , as I did before.
I changed all the dash lights to LED green.
much easier on the eyes and light up the panel gauges better. The hi-beam indicator gave me trouble until I realized I had not connected it to the dimmer switch correctly when I wired in the headlight harness.
It worked out ok though, because on closer inspection of the old blue/white hi beam indicator wire, I found old burns and tears, so it needed replacing anyway.
i think that about does it for the electrical for now.
