Where did you find the LED tails?

whopper 08-09-2013 12:19 PM

Do a google search and you will find them pretty easy - but they ain't cheap. They are in the neighbourhood of $400 or maybe a bit less on ebay.

Fox Hat 08-09-2013 08:07 PM

I think Whopper is thinking taillights. Which should be much lower than $400 from Maggie at Race and Street. I paid around $260 shipped.

I started this thread about License Plate LEDs. Mine were just under $10
At a flea market.
Gotta get a new set for my new to me panel. I'll take pics when I do the deed.
