o;?there is also a company at www.litezupp.com that can provide led lights
for your TD. they make positive ground ones (standard ledbs will not work
in a positive ground car). I have them in my TD and am very pleased with
them.
LED blinkers require a digital flasher unit because the led does not generate
enough draw to make the analog one work.

Hi John, If you can't find the glass lenses that clear the 1157 bulb, you
might check www.superbrightleds.com (it may be spelled "brite"). There are
drawings with dimensions for all their bulbs. They have an 1157 equivalent
that is perfect for the round-lens TD tail lights. It has two sets of LEDs
that provide tail lights and brake/turn. I installed them in my non-turn
signal TD and have been very pleased with brilliance and low electrical draw.
They note that a certain amount of current is needed to operate a turn-signal
flasher. I recall reading somewhere that two ordinary incandescents will
provide the needed draw of current, but read their text on the subject as a
different flasher may be needed.Bob
