Default LED Bulbs

I just recently removed my rear tail light and installed a controller to use my turn signals as brake lights on my '08 1200XL. Now I'm in the market for brighter lights for my front and rear turn signals. I was shopping around and there are a ton of bulbs on the market. So I thought I would see if you guys have any recommendations. Thanks for the help ahead of time!

make sure the body of the bulb part is the same shape as a regular bulb, I ordered in two at $15.00 each that had 19 LED's per bulb, the base went into the socket but because of the shape of the body of the bulb the base wouldn't go in far enough to turn and lock into place.

The more LED's the brighter the light and the more LED's mean a more expensive bulb. This site has some of the best prices I have seen.

I just went down to Advance Auto in town and bought two red 1156 LED bulbs and they are awesome. Far superior to the red incadescents I had in there prior to them. I run the smoked signal covers so thats why I have to buy red bulbs.
