i have new bulbs all around and my indicators work properly. however, i get honked at regularly because it would seem that other drivers do not see the indicator light when i am turning or changing lanes. during the day is the problem as all lights are bright at night. anyone else have this problem? any solutions?
cheers, scott |

Just a side note on LED Tails... some of the LED light options (the 1156/1157 direct replacements that NAPA carries for example) have some number of LED's all facing out. This almost totally eliminates the reflected light off the housings (since none of the light is facing the reflector), and results in a dimmer light overall. Great theory, not so good in practice.
Clean the contacts, new bulbs, and maybe some plastic polish on the lenses...then pray the guy behind you didn't opt for the "value line" brake pads last time he did them... |
