Of course replacing exterior and interior light bulbs can improve the quality of light (especially the instant on/off).
I'm wondering if LED replacements last the life of the car.
I ask this, because they can be expensive.
LEDs are supposed to have 20,000+ lifespan, but the quality of the LED bulb assembly could lead to broken electrical connections inside the bulb itself.
I'm sure many of you notice cars from the 90s with a long row of red LEDs in rear spoliers with many of them unlit.

I have no idea. I started making my own lights after mine started failing ![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
At the very minimum, LED lights have resistors but they only go up to a certain voltage. If you ever had flickering lights when you opened your door, thats a sign that the voltage started to fry the bulb
