Re: LED arrays for turn signals, brake lights available yet?
Ya, I talked to a guy last week and he found some that were "authorized" lol
The old in candenscents were replaced about every 6months depending on the storms rumbling thru. But they had a fresnel type of lens cover that gave all around directional "beaconizing" lol It was the LED ones they were worried about because they don't emit 360...they're strongest from their end points...
