Sure, but with todays dollar value, it may not be so cheap after all. Are we talking 50 bucks for the pair? I can get Bosch H7's at that price.

Yard lights not new but good used ones for about 20 bucks and shipping via us mail.

Golf I and II tended to have 7" Hella or Bosch units. I gave away a box of them last year. Consider it funding my laywer fees.

So I don't need to sell my BBS RS wheels.

pretentious...? Like LED tail lights (tacky), born of the ricer nation our friend spoke of above.

But hey if you like em run with it..

If it brings more light or lumen output I could careless if it's ricey or tacky. Safety and visibility is what I'm looking for.

yes, and LEDs are faster than incandesants...giving off more light faster helps people behind u stop sooner and maybe stay out of your trunk

i dont see whats wrong with using better technology

M,

I'll take a set with a "yellow" tint if you can find some at that price. Thanks a lot.

goner002 - my feelings exactly.

I run LEDs everywhere I can. Better light, faster lighting, lower power/heat. And it fits right in/on. What's bad about better technology? We LIKE better brakes, better ignition, handling, etc.

I'm getting really tired of the 'purists'. "Oh, it wasn't used in 1968-72, so it must be not good for our car or my tradition". FTS...

Its not that I don't think improvements are a bad idea, I just think some are quite tasteless, it can be likened to being sponsored by Autozone, or the Auto Isle at Wal-mart. Your choice not mine, and I don't get "tired" by anyones opinion, like I said its all personal preference. He asked for opinions I gave mine.

hey 02friend...

i am not one of the flamer guys on the board

(childish and i dont have time for it)

i respect you opinion and your reasons for it

but my car is a hot rod and that means mod all i can

i argue with my old man all the time

about how things are not made like they used to

to a point i agree with him, but new technology makes things better

(mainly more efficant)

and if that were the case we would be using pen, paper and a real cork board to post these thoughts , not the latest silcon chips

look if you like 02's then i am down with u...period

just mine is a mutt and yours is a purebreed

shit i might put a bull and roster sticker on the door....jk ;]

Dont assume it's tasteless,ricey or tacky when you have not seen it. In my opinion, tasteless and tacky are the people who "upgrade" tail lights on newer cars to LED or projector/Jewel lights for no apparent reason other than it looks "good". I'm simply trying to achieve more light, less maintenance and better visibility.
