    LED Bulbs-Fiberoptics

    Any issues using LED lamps on a 71? If no issues, do they make a difference lighting up the fiber optics indicators?

    I assume you mean using LED bulbs for brake and turn signals?

      I have LED bulbs for front park/turn lamps. Fiberoptics work fine; a bit brighter because the LEDs are brighter.

        Bob you will either have to install a resistor to ground or a electronic variable flasher if you use them for T/S. I have LED's in everything I own. At 60 mph the brake lamps illuminate one car length quicker than incandescence
