Brighter Break Lights ?!

[fzheavenearth]

I bought some halogen break lights from the Yami dealer last week. I put them on Sunday...Last night @ a stop light a car next to me says I have a break light out ???<br>The damn thing even started to melt the socket...What the F***! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START >: --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/mad.gif ALT=">:"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>I swear that's the last time I go to that dealer. <p></p><i></i>

It was screwed in correctly. It's like the 1157 but smaller in diameter. One high screw post, one low screw post. Itlooks like mozzarella cheese that just started to melt.<br>Needless to say , I switched back to the regular ones before it got any worse.<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START >: --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/mad.gif ALT=">:"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Red LED's behind a red lens are not very bright. At least the tail light. Brake light is about the same. Much better if you have a clear lens. <p>Tim<br><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img69.photobucket.com/albums/v20 ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> Has anyone seen my keys?</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:white;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">Dir. of Entertainment<!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://eddieandthecruisersmc.com" target="top"> Eddie & the Cruisers</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">'94 FZR 1000</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

Digikey offers led based light bulb assemblies. I haven't checked to see if they offer any that swap out exactly with the stock. I'll leave that up to you.<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>
