          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             All of the bulbs in my Scirocco have been replaced by LEDs except 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.
