I use them in my Bugeye and my Harley Davidson.?? They are very bright.?
Without stepping on the brakes the light is brighter than when you step on the
brakes with the old incandescent bulbs.? Just make sure you buy white LED
lights.? Red will hardly show up with the red lens.? As far as the Harley.?
When I go that one the LED was facing the front of the bike.? They had to make
one special that was mounted 180 degrees from normal.? I just installed them
and they work fine with no resistors.Mike MacLean

Thanks, Mike.? These look pretty solid; methinks--since these is for nav/stop
lights--they should work without resistors??
Are these actually brighter than incandescents?? Are the stop indications
brighter than normal running lights?

The correct incandescent bulb is an 1157, and I've found lots of LED
1157s on the 'net, but they're all neg. ground and my cars are both pos.
ground (and I'm not interested in changing to neg. ground).? Anyone
found pos. ground 1157 red bulbs anywhere??? I'm aware you need to
increase the load with resistors, or change to a solid state flasher.
TIA,
Bob
* anyone know why you shouldn't use an LED here?? I ran one for a while
and noticed no issues, but Moss and others are adamant you shouldn't do it
