pics dont do them any justice. they are very bright at night and if i went any bigger on the LED bulb size it wouldn't have fit right.

not sure what size they are. they are the 2 ft. side firing strips from autozone. ill get a pic of them tomorrow the pics at night dont turn out very good. my next little project is to get the same type strip accept in orange and put them next to the white ones under the turn signals and wire them into the turnsignal harness.

I've always had a hard time picturing LEDs in our lights, but that does look pretty good.

I'm going to say the opposite. I don't like the LEDs. The rest of the mods look great though. I like the black out headlights, rims, tails, and exhaust. Good looking car.
