Nice! I've been skeptical about LEDs since I've seen a lot of people say their replacement bulbs aren't anywhere near as bright.

I was thinking, you know those mini bulbs that turn on at the first click of the stalk? Parking lights or whatever? Mine are burned out, so if these LEDs are a little weaker than OEM bulbs, and then I add in a set of LED parking lights, that should be a pretty good amount of total light output. At least not any worse than the pathetic OEM lights.

BTW, I don't see any fans on those. Are those heatsinks good enough for 20W heat dissipation? They look a little small to me...maybe adding a mini computer fan would be a good call.
