Well crap, Nationals is cancelled. Some of the things that I'd hope to pick up were LED bulbs for tail , back up, dome and maybe license plates.

Who do you guys like for bulbs and where do you buy them?

Thanks

Seems odd but I got most of my LED's from West Coast Classic Cougar

https://secure.cougarpartscatalog.c...1973-ford-mustang.html?sessionthemeid=26

They are super bright and expensive, but maybe available elsewhere cheaper. The ones they don't carry I got from https://www.superbrightleds.com/ but are nowhere near the quality.

i got mine from superb bright also.
don't forget the electronic flashers needed to allow the led lights to flash properly.

Thanks for the replies, Super Bright is who I've been looking at.

I'm only doing the rears and not the front turn signals, I figured that the parking light would be way to bright. I've done this on another car and didn't have any trouble with the stock turn signal flasher and, of course, it made my brake lights much brighter.

Pretty sure polarity matters with led so that would effect some sockets that can go in either way like dash sockets for instance.

What kind of electronic flashers is needed? UPDATE-I think I answered my own question just by looking at the site

hope you figured it out, because i really don't know what specific one you need.
when i installed LED lights i just called my local parts store and asked for a electronic flasher to install LED lights.
remember most older mopars have 2 flashers. 1 for the turn signals and 1 for the flashers..
