I put orange LED indicators in my Audi, they needed resistors to flash correctly, and were not very bright, nowhere near as bright as the incandescent bulbs. If you (god forbit) have a crash caused by someone not seeing your indicators because you changed them, you'd be hip deep in sh1t.

With the headlights on the led's seem v.dim

Hi there.
=)



The corner bulb is an LED Bulb with a resistor.

http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=46668&hl=

Here is a post of what I did with the corners. Since then I upgraded to a 57 LED bulb. which is even brighter.




Enjoy!
