1) Yeah I'll post one up, if you answer how your headlights turned out!! Didn't you blackhouse them???!!! Or did you forget about the post.

2) Do a search immediately when you have a question, before posting. I did a search on "license plate led" and this was among the first 5 results!!! This topic has been covered numerous times.

This is a picture of my LED now:

This is a picture of my stock halogen bulb, which is much yellower (to compare):

I have a 1 superwhite LED in mine. The one (1) LED consists of a cluster of 4 directional led's, with a luxeon in the middle from www.superbrightleds.com

I think there is no reason for a huge fancy "licence plate" lighting setup anyways... what, do you want the cops to see your digits better?? I just like the natural blue color that the LED gives off better than halogen, supporting MikeyMike's statement from a previous post on this topic... even though it may not be the brightest.

A lot of guys on V6P including myself have changed out the stock license plate bulb for CCFLs, and the difference is amazing. Pics will be up later.

Someone had posted on here or V6P about doing the Lexus lighting upgrade for the licence plate light. Very nice mod!
