Wyntersun Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I have my rear fog light located in the right hand reverse light. Currently have one of these in it. http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/u38215r-stop-light-p-1817.html I looks bright enough, but im not totally sure as the LED's point upwards and not reflecting the light the best it could do. Is it worth going for this to replace it with? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330439715953&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_1708wt_913 Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 The 21W tungsten bulb would be much brighter than the 0.75W LED bulb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyntersun Posted July 30, 2010 Author Share Posted July 30, 2010 Cheers I think I will buy it and try it as im sure it wont pass its MOT with the led bulb in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyer864 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Just bought a pair of sidelight bulbs from this seller, suppose to be 5x brighter than normal bulb , we'll see http://stores.ebay.co.uk/e-bay-auto-shop__supra_W0QQ_sidZ223664441QQ_trksidZp4634Q2ec0Q2em14?_trksid=p4634.c0.m14.l1581&_pgn=3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mawby Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Anyone ever tried these? It could be the solution to the Supra's pointy-upie rear bulbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyntersun Posted July 31, 2010 Author Share Posted July 31, 2010 I did think about that bulb Mawby, but I wasn't sure if it was too long for the space inside the lens. Also wasn't sure if it would be bright enough as it doesn't state how bright it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The LED in mawby's link would probably be as bright (or even a little brighter) than a conventional 21W bulb. It draws almost 4 times the current as the LED in the link in the original post, which makes it around 2.9W. As a very rough guide, a 2.9W LED will have a similar light output to a 29W conventional bulb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
