and based on the recommendations, i've purchased these for the turn signals

i've seen the following direct base LED cluster with an 1157 base for the brake light
Motorcycle LED Light Bulbs


2" Diameter, 1 3/4" overall length, 1 1/8" base length

think it will fit?[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica]

Don't know, but when you get them let us know if they do fit and if they are brighter (I'm sure they will be...if they fit) than OEM.

I'm thinking about putting the light bar on my bike and replacing the stock lenses with red ones. Anyone in Florida will understand.
 
Front. My bike is black and english white. You know how often folks slow down as they approach me on the interstate?

I jest about the light bar, but heard this morning about some 23 year old idget running around with a fake light setup on his front and rear dash in his car. He also had a fake badge on a chain in the passenger seat. He was flashing his lights to get through traffic yesterday morning when he suddenly encountered a real policeman in an unmarked unit. Yes, he was arrested.
 


LOL Gotta love them floridians!!!! Im serious, everything happens down there. Not a day goes by that state isnt in the national news for some reason or another!!! Priceless

That's because Florida is at the bottom of the country. All the wackjobs and scumbuckets from up north roll down hill all the way to Florida.

I really don't like living here.

IF you find a direct replacement red lens I too want a pair.

I understand there is a succession movement to divide the north from the south of Florida.

I'm not entirely sure but for certain the turn signal bulbs are not 1157s. I'm not sure whether they are 1156 bulbs or another; I don't believe they're 1156 either. 1156 bulbs are single element bulbs of the same size as the 1157s. And looking at that LED 1157 it'll not fit through the mounting hole, from the rear. It is not a 2" opening. One of the other offerings are more likely. One of the other offerings with the side mounted LEDs should cast greater upon the reflector and take full benefit of the reflector aspect as does a more fully light casting 1157 bulb.

I purchased a pair of Zenon (blue glass) 1157s from Wally World. POS bulbs are 1/2 or less as bright as a standard bulb.

BTW, I never strive to be condescending but rather helpful in addressing of the subject; and on occasion adding my 2 cents worth in a manner similar to casting fertilizer.

Did anyone ever post an answer to the question about whether the 1157 led array would fit in the taillight housing?

Also, this is a RED LED. How well will it work under the Red lens of the taillight assembly? Shouldn't it be a WHITE LED?
