Replacement LED Bulbs

Has anyone replaced any turn signals, brake light, or reverse light bulbs with L.E.D. bulbs?

I'm looking to go that way and just wanted some feedback on them. Thanks!

i had some of those in for my front turn signals. they made the turn signals blink reallllllly fast. it got annoying, so i put the regular ones back in. if you don't think it will bother you, go for it. they are brighter, but the ones i had only lit up with the turn signal and not the parking light.
 
The LED bulbs that blink wrong aren't built with the proper resistors in them to blink at the correct speed. I'm sure there are nicer ones out there, our you could probably build a resistor pack if you know a little about electronics.
 
i don't know anything about electronics, and they were the ones made by APC. i heard of some good ones and saw a web site once, but i don't remember the link or the name of the company. they had some high quality ones that sold for about $50 a piece. that is why i can't remember who they were.



edit:
here is the link:

and the bulbs are $48.50 each.
