Thinking about buying LED Light bulbs and Projector head lamp - Toyota Yaris Forums

Me personally i dont like led bulbs in our housing cause it dosnt illuminate the area even with the leds scattered around liek in the picture. If you look at true led tail lights they have many many many leds in a cluster to get the same effect one single regular bulb could illuminate because they only light in a strait beam pattern.

If you put those also in the turn signals you will get that fast blinking effect as if you had a burnt out bulb. Worthwhile leds would be the license plate light bulbs since they are pointed strait down anyways. Or dome light leds that come in a mini cluster. Or trunk leds. I have all of those installed already.
