Found this in an old Porsche catalog. Aftermarket exhaust for VW variants made by Sebring.

Funny, how most French reflectors I have see on cars and/or for sale, including mine, have dented bezels. _________________ I'd be UNSTOPPABLE if not for Law Enforcement and PHYSICS.

Are they 6 volt or 12 volt?
I've found several options for a 12 volt car but not many for a 6 volt.
Post up some links to the product if you've got them. |

I bought 6 volt LED while in China, I didn't car for them as they don't diffuse light or glow. The just light up. They were bright, but instead of a nice lighted lense, like with incandescent bulbs, it had a small spot light in the middle of the housing. _________________ I'd be UNSTOPPABLE if not for Law Enforcement and PHYSICS.

that is the problem I see with new car LED tail lights, they are bright but not the same bright red or orange of old school incandescent lights when they were new.
The LED are nice because they last a very long time, light instantly, don't take much voltage to light up, etc, etc. _________________ http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/manuals/jim_martin_engine_build.php

The newer LEDs have 360 output and are very bright all around but I've yet to find them in 6 volt.
I have the LEDs for my dash in 6volt and they're nice and bright/crisp lighting. I'm hoping to find the same for the exterior lights as well. |

I never complained about the brightness, I don't like the Super Bright small spot on the center of the lense, now that's just me. I like how the whole lense lights up with a sof glow on incandescent bulbs, like it was intended.

I was neither here nor there with them as I have never seen/used them until today. Just wanted to share what my thoughts were. I'm sure the 6 volt variety are different. _________________ '68 Lotus White T34 automatic sunroof
