Just installed the "Vintage" LED replacement lamps in my Carrera 3.2 from etarga this weekend and I am very pleased with the results. I originally tried LED replacements from SuperBrightLEDs.com, but the only offerings they had were amber or blue. I went with amber, thinking these would be close to 2700K CCT like the stock lamps. But, they were definitely lower on the color temperature scale than that and were more "orange" than the stocks. They also appeared to be no brighter than stock. After putting the "white" lamps from etarga in, I noticed a much brighter output in the color temperature that I originally searched for when I tried to find LED replacement lamps. I am very pleased with the output and color of these replacements. The only shortcoming is the slightly uneven light distribution which has to do with the original gauge design and not the replacement LEDs. Although they are pricey compared to the first LEDs I ordered, they are worth the cost because they perform so much better.
