Impressive and very expensive. Google reviews and you'll find several negative ones.

Automakers have to redesign the entire lamp housing if they want LEDs in their design.

I try this bulb, it looks OK fro brake light, definitely can feel the brightness is instant when you hit the brake

I principle LEDs are a good idea but I agree with another poster that when used as rear brake and tail lamps the "pulsing" to my eye as well is very distracting and actually seems to make me tired if I have to look at them too long.

Also even though there are "pure white" LEDs available now, I still see a slight bluish tint from them even in high quality products from TVs to flash lights and LED headlights.


LEDs that a pure white are not REALLY pure white.
