Default 96-98 LED ?? tail light bulbs?

I just converted the 95 to 96-98 tail lights including sequential blinkers.

I had previously added led's for the backup's... they were and still are GREAT!!

I used the standard 3157 bulbs for the tail lights, etc. Anyone tried LED's for brake / tail lights?

What about using RED Led's?

dont get them! because a regular bulb omits light in all directions, which lights up the whole tail light. the LED bults have about 5 LED pionting out, which in return only omits light straight out, and it only lights up a small circular part of the tail light housing, it looks kinda funny, i put them in my truck and did not like it, there pretty cheap so there worth a try if you feal like risking 15 bucks for one to see what it looks like.

I used led's for the backup bulbs, they work great! But then again, I did not try 5 led. I used (I think) 18 led.

But I am not sure about using them for brake / turn signals.

Something like these.

Anyone using these?
