LED Parking Lights

Getting tired of replacing my parking lights and number plate light. The wedge style globe is just too fragile for a big single.

Purchased a few T10 7020 SMD Leds from eBay and hoping for a bit more longevity. The LEDs are supposedly vibration proof with a service life of around 30,000 hours...... In my opinion they still look pretty fragile.



The globes I chose are supposedly 500 lumens...they do appear to be brighter.

They work out around the same price as a standard wedge globe. If they last more than 12 months I will be happy. Time will tell

I am not particularly interested in their parking function....Just want to be more visible to oncoming traffic.

Below are some before and after pics.
