Hi,
I registered because i was searching the web to know which led type can be used instead the factory bulb on the cigarette lighter(I used the search option on this forum but even there are some topics about this,nobody says which bulb type is). Can anyone say me which one should i buy? Ebay links will help a lot. Thank you! |

iirc, for mine it wasn't anything like a standard bulb. i took a num74 led, and pulled the led and resistor out of its housing. then i did the same for the bulb (breaking it). then i just sortof shoved it in there so the legs were making contact.
didn't do any soldering, but the connection has never faltered or flickered on me. as always when converting to led, flip the polarity if it doesn't light at first. i think the connector allows you to just flip it without reseating the led+resistors. |
