Thumbs up

Which ones are you using right now? I bought some at my local radio shack for a couple of bucks each. They sell red, green and amber ones in 3 or 5 mm sizes ( I used the 3mm ones). Something like this one; http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...ductId=2062548 They have other styles. If you want a blue one, you have to use another vender (I bought mine through DSE). I wonder how they are "blowing", is all of the wiring good?

you need to run them through a resistor, probably getting too much voltage causing them to blow. They are designed to work on low voltage.

Painless has blue leds and they come with the resistor in the body of them, they are a bit pricey but they look good and directly wire in with no problems.

Default Digi Tail Lights

Wow, nice turn signal indicators. Would be great to use them with LED turn signals:

Then you’d have a complete LED set up!!

Those are used for whatever you want, we tried to leave them as generic as possible, but most folks use them for functions like generator, brake, fan or pump, warning light, low oil pressure, its up to you.
We an also build a custom indicator with whatever you want on it

We also have these indicator gauges which are pretty cool, simillar idea, we can make the face look like anything you want
