Left work almost as soon as I arrived because I’m not feeling right. And what do I find in the mailbox when I get back? My LEDs from superbrightleds.com!

(bananas for scale)

Why am I surprised? Because I signed up for sms delivery updates from USPS and got exactly none, so I didn’t expect to see it until next week.

I can’t believe I paid so much money for such a small box... The exchange rate is terrible right now.

I drove by their shop a few weeks ago. I'm afraid if I went in there I'd spend so much money.

I spent a lot of money... It’s a full set of exterior bulbs, excluding the headlights and fog lights.

Did you install them?

I wonder how good they are

Not yet, I’m mostly going to be horizontal today. I’ll do it tonight or tomorrow night, with pictures.

I did the tail lights and reverse lights on my Mazda shortly after I got it. Seemed like a good idea, so far they’ve been great. They have different levels depending on what you want to spend, I did mid level ($18ish per bulb) and they’re brighter than incandescent, which is what I wanted. Plus instant-on and it’s the future!

I even ordered the wrong bulbs (single mode tail lights, not good if you need running and brake lights in a single bulb) first and they let me return them after the return period was up.

Looking forward to seeing how this turns out! Contemplating switching the bulbs on my import FIAT 126 (when I eventually get it!) to LED bulbs (excepting the headlights) to save some effort for the alternator...every little bit helps on a 650cc 2-cyl! :P
