Is there a LED bulb kit for Carreras?

deputydog95 · 10-28-2015, 05:45 AM

I"d like to replace all the lights with LED bulbs. Brighter, last longer, etc.. Lots of plusses.

Does someone make a kit that has all the bulbs you need? Brake lights, 3rd brake light (mine has OEM ET brake light), reverse lights, interior dome light, etc...

My 85 car has upgraded headlights (non sealed beam), I think they are H4. Not even sure what would go in there.

Any ideas on where to get replacement LED bulbs?

You can also swap the interior lights for LEDs like I did the other day. I've already swapped the gauge lights and now am interested in the LED headlights!

I forgot to mention that I've also ordered some LED strip lights on Ebay that I plan on wiring up to the door light to illuminate the footwells. I'll post back my results when they come in.

Hi, a fellow Pelican makes the best and brightest around for the brake, 3rd brake, including both front and rear signal lights. Spoke makes them on a board that fastens into the lights frame. It takes as long as it takes to take and put your lens back on... He has also just released a LED board stuffed with 24 LED's ? that are round. His product is just plain excellent. I have a set and when the brakes are on at a stop light, with a car behind you, they will have to squint.. Like bright! Another pelican makes bright dash LED's---Here is his site http://airboxer.com/LED.html

Is there any one retailer that has everything?

I ordered Airboxer's bright white LED kit with the blue/green bulbs for thie high beam/turn signal.

Does the dimmer still work with the LED dash lights? Never asked....

I also ordered Spoke's square brake light LED bulbs and his LED board for the periscope 3rd brake light.

Any suggestions for interior lights and turn signals?

The dimmer doesn't work with the LED's I installed. I don't think they respond well to decreasing the voltage. They flicker a bit and then go dark. I don't mind, though, because I would never dim the gauge lights anyway. They certainly look a world better than the OEM bulbs that were in there. They illuminated about 1 square inch of the gauge.

I'm interested in the LED brake lights and headlights as well, but would like to hear from people who have installed them to see how it goes.

I've got an upgraded headlight setup (euro lamps/non sealed beam) so I don't think I'll be messing with the headlights anytime soon. Maybe upgraded bulbs if I can figure what the heck is in there.

My brake lights are supposed to ship next week from Spoke. I'll let you know how they turn out. They look really bright in his videos.
