LED brake/parking lights?? Where to buy good ones?

kens97sto171 · 06-02-2008, 12:46 AM

Looking to replace the parking/brake light with an LED replacement. My reason is to reduce the power consumption, I am running without a battery and the headlight dims significantly when I put on the brakes.

I found one for $10 at Pep Boys but it was WAY WAY WAY dimmer than stock... It was only a 9 LED setup. They had a 32LED bulb that had lights on the side and front, It was over $20.

If anybody has done this Mod, and had good results I would appreciate the info...

It is a 1197 Bulb...or 1157.. sorry.. not sure at the moment

Also would like to change the turn signals if possible...

Thanks.
Ken

Webbikeworld has an on-going investigation of LED lights for motorcycles. They've turned up a few good ones and a lot of bad ones so far.
