#41428, "Rear Tailight Bulbs"




          

I am being hassled by the local police about the whitness of the bulbs on my corner tails. Anyone know where i can get red bubls from? I thought the red reflector would be enough but i guess not. Thanks in Advance......

The red bulbs suck, they usually look orange. Get some red LED's. You can get them from most parts stores

What kind of LEDs am I getting exactly? I know that our number is 2057, so do i give them that number and ask for the LED replacement?

Not all the red bulbs suck. I have red bulbs in my clear tails and they look bright red. They were $10/bulb, I've had them for 2 years and they haven't faded. The local speed shop I bought them from went out of business, but I still have the packages for them, so I'll see what brand they are tonight when I get home and post it for ya. But I'm sure the LED's you can buy at AutoZone cost about the same.

You're not your fu**ing post count.

When you buy the LED bulbs (which is the best to do) get a 1157, it is more common and wont harm anything. It fits right in the place of the 2057. But if I was you I wouldnt get the APC ones which are usually what the autoparts stores carry. Get them from a local custom shop or off of eBay. They shouldnt be anymore than $15.
