Canada SOME LED INFO (Eurolite Led 3157 Red bulb info)

So today i went to Canadian tire looking for led bulbs to replace my tail light incadecent bubls. I found these eurolite Led 3157 Red bulb. They were $7.99 each. I found a web site on the packaging www.toucanindustries.com Here is some pictures of them.

I also made a video of them at night so you can judge for your self.
THE LED IS ON THE LEFT LADIES AND GENTELMEN

So from what i saw these bulbs are not that great. You need a bulb with led's on the side to take advantage of the refelction. I will be returning these but I don't want to pay $26 for a way better bulb online (plus shipping).

P.S. ( put those led bulbs in the signals and they flash really fast! Need a flash resitor.) look so cool red could even get them in blue

sometimes you just have to pay to play, I wouldn't have blue bulbs in the turn signals though, doing so is just asking for a ticket by the local popo

^^ Agreed, here any flashing blue lights can be considered "impersonating an officer" i'm guessing it caries a heavy fine lol.

Soon we can expect every car to have LED tail lights....so they'll get cheaper. Some luxury cars have pure LED running/DRL lights now, and remember thats how HID's started aswell.

Anyways those did look quite alot dimmer than the ones I have....but I dont remember what brand anymore..hmm. I guess I really wont know if they're gonna pay off until I see if they're still lit 5 years from now lol.
