  Oh, they look great. But now they are so well lit I can see 32 years of 
schmoe that has accumulated on the inside of the glass. 
  So now I have to pull it ALL apart and clean the glass. 
  Yeah, maybe some day.

This is pick on kelly day.Don't be so thin skinned 
It's just funning
  Will your lights dim with the dash light 
dimmer?also do you know if the LEDs can be used on 110 voltage with out some 
sort of resistor or something? i would think because they are LEDs they would 
work on either voltage.
LEDs have a much longer life, like 10,000 hrs.so 
when your phaft cick is a pile of rust the LEDs should still be 
working.
   I'm looking forward to seeing you at 
the classic.It's Fun.

        First of all, I never said it would increase my 
        mileage by 2-3 miles per gallon. I said I would be pleased if it did, 
        but even .2mpg would be fine with me. Lights use gas. That's all there 
        is to it. They don't magically draw energy out of the air.
  The 
        bottom line is nobody can say conclusively how much difference it would 
        make..  It would differ from person to person and car to car. If I 
        never drive at night I suppose it wouldn't save squat. 
  I 
        neither know nor care how this became such a debate. My instruments are 
        much brighter now. It only cost me $6.79 and they save energy. 
        
  I just thought I would share that with all of 
        you.   
  Sorry if I wasted your time with such 
        useless information. It won't happen again.

          It sure as hell isn't because they can 
          increase mileage 2-3 mpg.I'm sure on a VW bus there are lots of other 
          things that would make a bigger mileage improvement.Driving a toaster 
          isn't contusive to good mileage.

                  If I'm dreaming then so is every major 
                  car company in the world. They are all switching to LEDs from 
                  bumper to bumper and it ain't 'cause they're pretty.

                    2-3 mpg you are 
                    dreaming.

                            Incandescent bulbs get too hot 
                            to touch. It has 
                            to take a substantial amount of energy to 
                            create that heat and that's ultimately coming out 
of 
                            the gas tank. 
  Even if I only squeeze 2-3 
                            more miles out of a gallon it's better for the 
                            environment and a step in the right direction. 
                            
  Besides, if I ever forget to turn my 
                            lights off, the bus will still start in the 
morning. 
                            
  P.S. Thanks for reminding me. I need to 
                            check my tires. 8^)

                                 All of 
                              the bulbs in my Scirocco have been replaced by 
                              LEDs except the head lamps.I can't believe that 
                              they will make any difference in the fuel 
                              mileage.That sounds like sales talk to 
                              me.Increasing your tire pressure by two or three 
                              psi will probably make more change in your 
                              mileage.I have red LEDs for dash lights and I 
                              don't really like them that much.Of course I 
                              haven't changed to white so they must not be to 
                              bad.

                                  After, possibly, more 
                                research than it was worth and pulling my dash 
                                apart many times to try several different LEDs, 
                                we finally 
                                have a winner. 
  These bad boys 
                                are twice as bright as all the rest yet still 
                                not too 
                                bright. They are just right. It is really nice 
                                to have everything so well lit for a 
                                change!
  They are at the cool end of 
                                the spectrum so the light is snow-white. 
                                
  The best part is they are only $2.44 
                                a pair, no tax and free shipping! 
  I 
                                shoulda bought 50 of them and sold them for 5 
                                bucks each in Fredericksburg. 8^)  
                                
  They're from a company in China that 
                                I buy stuff from all the time. The prices are 
                                great but it's always 4-6 weeks for delivery. 
                                Considering their prices it's worth the wait..

                                They are polarized, so before you put your dash 
                                back together, wait to see which ones you have 
                                to turn around first. 
   Next I'll 
                                be upgrading my interior lights and my brakes 
                                and turn signals. I read it actually makes a 
                                significant difference in your gas mileage. 
                                We'll see. It probably wont be that significant 
                                unless I do the headlights too, but those 
                                suckers are over $100 each, so forget that.
