Default lights

I'm looking to replace the bulbs in my front and rear turn signals with LEDs. The break light as well. Anyone recommend a quality kit. Has anyone swapped out their lights for LEDs.

One of my friends just put a 1157 LED replacement in the stock brake light and you can hardly see it. So be careful.

be prepared to change out the flasher unit because LED's don't draw enough current to make the flashers work

Try here http://www.kuryakyn.com/index.asp
I got mine here and like them. Also got the brake, turn signal module to make the rear turn signals work with the rear tail light.

What he said
Just be aware of the warning labels on the stop,run ,turn kit it says that the security icon on the speedometer may be affected.

Kuryakyn is the way to go. I have the LED front/rear turn signals, smoked laydown taillight, run/turn/stop module. It is awesome. The lights all flash 3 times before going to a steady burn. Nice and bright. I would stay away from just using replacement bulbs that have the LED lights on them.

Just what he said!!! It costs a little bit much to do it, but I feel that it is a lot safer then the stock lights.

I keep hearing opposite opinions on the Kuryakyn LED lights. Some say they are great and others say they don't show up well at all in the daylight, specially in the sunlight. Some have gone as far as saying that the stock tail light is brighter.
