And the Hybrid ones light BLUE not red.

 

Good job on the post! You're definitely a FitFreak!!!

 

Don't forget the fit twist! Basically the original base tails but all clear.

 

After almost 2 years, the Left LED that I bought from Amazon almost die and flickering...
I worry I will get ticket because not only it looks like I had a broken light, it also flickering (annoying for the car behind me)...
This time I want to buy a better one even though it is $50 a pair,
because it is a pain to take out all the hot glue that hold the light fitting and glue it back,
so I bought a new pair of LED from VLEDS,
RED PLATINUM 21 LED TURN SIGNAL BRAKE LIGHT BULBS 7443 7444 7440 | 1 PAIR

Notice the metal part is the heat sink:



Here how they package for shipment:



This is how the old glue:


Melting the old glue with my solder then use flat screwdriver to peel of the glue:


Old LED out:




Testing New LED before glue it to the housing, make sure it work,
and the polarity are correct otherwise it won't light up:







Left one installed, Notice how the VLED actually BRIGHTER than the Factory OEM Light !!!






Right one installed:



Hopefully this one last longer than 2 years

 

has anyone else tried this? i will be attempting this.

if i use a Non LED brake bulb, do i still need to use a diode?

also, does it get brighter when you step on the brakes? or it just stays at one brigthness?

thanks!
