2-piece 12 LED Car Tail Red Light $7 at Mostbuying

Keep in mind these may not be as visible in use because the beam shape is one directional opposed to a incan bulb reflecting across the entire brake lens surface.

What Dave says is true, but the remedy is easy. The rounded fronts makes for a spot beam. Simply sand the front of each lens flat and it will have a much wider view. The lens will still not be used, but most cars don't need the lens to make the light go broad. LEDs are great because they light up much faster and that fraction of a second could be enough to keep you from getting rear ended, or reduce the speed at impact.

^ I agree that you can sand (then polish) the LEDs to cause a broader beam, BUT, no matter how much you do that, you'll never end up with the same broad beam of an incan, physics prevents it.

Whether that matters depends entirely on the lens and reflector design on the car, but *most* cars are not designed so that you'll have as much light unless the LED replacement was spec'd for far more lumens than the original lamp was.

Move on folks....nothing to see here. This bulb isn't as bright as your current bulb.

These bulbs are a bad idea for a lot of reasons, beam pattern and luminescence are just two of them. For the price you're also getting cheap stamped metal and plastic housings, poor soldering and no water resistance. That adds up to a bulb that will almost certainly fail well before a normal bulb would.

Putting these in your car will actually make it less safe!!!

LOL at the dude ^ spouting off stuff when he has no first hand experience with this piece for sale.

These are not very bright in the day time but work well at night. Also note that these are illegal in most, if not all, states.

And I agree with #5, they rust rather easily which causes them to short out and no longer work
