LED replacement bulbs
for antique automobiles and classic cars
tail / brake / running lights / backup light/ turn signal
What makes these LEDs the right choice for
your car?
1) These LED globes are much brighter than
regular incandesant bulbs.
2) LED auto lamps have extremely low current
draw. Instead of 2 to 3 amps of current each – only milliamps drain on your
battery. Easier on your charging system, and may in fact keep your headlights
from going so dim when at idle!
3) Almost instant on – regular bulbs take more
time to turn on, as the filaments take time to heat up (LED brake lights "turn
on" in about 100 nanoseconds. Regular incandescent bulbs take about 200
milliseconds. That may not sound like much, but for a car coming up behind you
going 60 miles per hour, this gives about an extra 20 feet of stopping
distance! ).
4) No heat buildup. These LED bulbs are only
slightly warm to the touch.
5) Extremely long life – you may never have to
replace this LED bulb again in your lifetime.
6) Not sensitive to vibration. New Old Stock
original bulbs may have been on the shelf for 75 years, and have already been
subjected to rough handling, which may contribute to their quick burnout. These
LED antique and classic car lamps are brand new, with no filaments to burn out,
and are soldered electronic circuits.
7) Direct plug in replacement, fits right into
your existing socket. The base of these LED lights is the same as your regular
bulb.
8) The 32 Individual LEDS bulb has 18 LEDS
that send light straight out, and it has 14 "extra" individual bulbs
that send light to the reflector or sides.
If your old
car is like my Studebaker, it has small, dull tail lights, which no one behind
you can see. Put in these Superior Bright LED lamps and decrease the chance
that you will hit from behind.
The 6 volt
LEDs may be used with 6 or 8 volt batteries – never with 12 volts. The 12 volt
LEDs are of course the ones for 12 volt systems.
Follow these simple steps to insure these
bulbs will work in your car, and to find out exactly which ones to order.
1. Check the
polarity of your car. Look at the battery ground cable to see if the Positive
or Negative terminal is connected to your frame. These LEDs are polarity
sensitive, and you must order these bulbs for the proper ground.
3. Take out
your existing bulbs. Look from the bottom (base), make sure the pins, and the
terminals look like either diagram. These double filament bulbs will automatically
be on brightest when used in a single filament socket.
5. If the lens of the lamp that you wish to
replace is clear, white, amber, or yellow, use the White/White Bulbs. 32
separate individual white LEDS will point light to the side and straight.
For maximum
brightness with a RED lens, use RED/White. These bulbs are 18 RED leds straight
back and 14 white around the outside. If your tail light has a license plate
lens with no separate bulb, the white bulbs around the outside of these lamps
will still light up your license plate.
Decide if you
need White/White, or RED/White.
6. Do you have a 6 or a 12
volt system?
7. If you use these bulbs
for rear turn signals, they will work just fine. If you would like to use them
in the front and back at the same time, please talk to us before purchasing.
