<VV> LED Tail Lights

[LonzoVair at aol.com]

Frank,
Yes, you would have to go to an "electronic flasher" if you  changed ALL your 
turn bulbs to LEDs... if you just changed your tail  lights, but kept the 
original incandescent bulbs in the front, you could get by  with a "heavy duty" 
(I think 552, but I could be mistaken) flasher. It will not  turn into the 
"dead bulb indicator" that the original flasher is (you know, you  hit the turn 
signal, but it doesn't flash... the original flasher depended on  the current 
load of the bulbs to make it flash. The heavy duty style isn't AS  dependant and 
will still flash if a bulb is blown)... and the lack of current  usage by the 
LEDs will make the original style flasher not work.
Have I confused everyone enough yet?
I gotta scoot... I have a CADD class I need to get to.
:-)
Later,
Lonzo
