      H4 Headlights Working -- RS Turn Signal Lights Dull / LEDs??

      Well... My H4 lights are working and look great. Now I noticed that when my lights are on the smaller lights (parking / turn signal) lights are a dull ugly color in comparision to the H4 headlights.

      Do they make plug and play LED lights that will fit in there? Any thoughts? Suggestions...

      Check the lens. If they are old and dull, the lights will be dim. There are a few replacement LED 1157 bulbs out there, most are kinda large and may not fit. I have new front park lights and they are very bright.

      My RS lights on my 67 were dull so first I tried cleaning/polishing the lens and painting the reflectors. Better but still not bright enough. Then I installed new complete assemblies which are much brighter.

      They make an LED 1157 bulb. Ledbulbs is the company i think.

      I switched to LED park/flashers built into the headlights of my Firebird and the blinkers won't work because they don't draw enough current for the flasher to function. I have to "blink" manually with the lever till I replace the rear bulbs with the 1157 replacement LEDs and get an LED flasher. So you may need to replace the flasher to retain automatic blinking function

      There is a company making the LED parking lights for the RS now, I cannot remember where I saw it but will let you know once this brain fart fades because I want some too.

      Digi-tails, we ar a dealer for them. $99 for the front lights.

      Electronic flashers are recommended for all LED light installs. They are $15 each.

      $99 for front and $199 for rear seems expensive when you can buy the 1157 LED bulbs for the for $30ea. Is there something special about Digitails?

      Another question... When you purchase the front and rear lights it says you need 2 Electronic Flashers... This is where I am confused. Right now the flasher is plugged into the fuse block under the dash. How do I get/use 2 flashers? Are they inline or something?
