Replaced all the bulbs I could with LEDs they had at Love's truck stop and autozone.
Ordered everything else I needed from superbrightleds.com.

Now anyone can very clearly see my brake lights during the day even when driving towards the sunset.
Blinkers still blink normally, will see what happens when I replace the A1157 bulbs up front with LEDs when they come in.
Added a "G4 halogen replacement LED array" next to the back up 1156LED replacement I installed, now I can see what is behind me when backing up at night.

May use a "G4 halogen replacement LED array" for licence plate lighting also.

I am trying to increase the feasability of running an alt delete or field winding intruptor.
