the small tube you are refering to is the City Light. I used two 10,000 mcd pure white led's there in each one, and it looked great. I could presolder and pack 4 of them for the city lights for $20 + 3.50 to ship to anyone interested. These LED's retail for $14 to $19 each.

GOOD DEAL!
I paid $35 for a pair of PIAA LEDs for the city light, not to mention that each base only comes with 2 LEDs. Btw, does your setup look a bit blue when put into the housing?? The PIAAs are absolutely white when u see them directly, but when put into the light housing the light actually looks white/blue.

Hey OLT,
How dense can the LEDs get? Do you only use 10mm or do you use 5mm? For axample on the yellow bar, how many can you fit vertically in the center part?

So anyone know why the PIAA's look blue when inserted into the housing? From the curves of the lenses?

i'm not actually creating bases for them, you'll simply connect them to the two tabs + and -
Use a voltmeter to determine which. These are led's and they must be in the correct direction.

thats up to you. I'm basically responding to the demand by offering LED's that are $14 to $19 each at retail for $20 for 4 of them (two each side). and i'll add the resistors to them and get them ready for you to install. how you do it is up to you, there are several ways to accomplish mating them to the connectors.

Very nice! Will the leds effect the tailight warning indicator? My understanding (limited as it is) is that the different resistance of the leds will cause the indicator to light up.
