FS: BRIGHT License Plate LEDs! Just $5! Cheap, Easy Mod! - Page 4

I want LED's that are so NOT bright the cops can't even read my plate at night.

News flash: your license plate is reflective, and will be visible to the police no matter what you do!

Just went to your site to order the license plate stage 3 led replacements and they are on back order. Any idea when they will be back in stock?

Diode Dynamics · 01-02-2013, 04:07 PM

We expect them back in stock by the end of next week.

Thank you,
Paul

I know it's reflective I just don't want to help someone report my driving, or for "the Man" to see it any easier than I have to, I'd pull the lights all together if it was legal.

What temp are these lights? I just bought a backup camera, and someone who has the same unit, said a 5k light would best match the light in the camera. Here is the post I'm talking about:

Our LEDs are closest to 6000K. However, please keep in mind that everyone's definition of 6000K can vary. Thanks!

Is there a big difference between 5k and 6k? I'm a noob when it comes to LEDs. :(

Diode Dynamics · 01-24-2013, 07:07 AM

Nope, not a big difference. Ether will might well :)

Bought a set a few weeks ago and really like them. Had to call them once to discuss items back ordered and they were great to deal with. I wish I'd got the brighter ones for my license plate but maybe someday I'll upgrade from the level 2 to 3.

Also, the way they ship to Canada is very friendly! Right to the door, no trips to the post office, perfect.

I'm glad you enjoyed your buying experience with us. If you have time, be sure to post pictures of your install! I would very much like to see them!

I posted a review on the website along with some pictures, but I figured I'd post it here as well.

Purchased a set of Stage 2 LEDs to replace the stock license plate lights in my '13 Forester 2.5X. After figuring out that the bulbs pull with a little wiggling, the rest of the installation went great. Much better lighting than the stock bulbs, and the price is unbeatable. To top it off, they arrived very quickly as well. I plan on purchasing more in the coming weeks to change the interior lights.

Pardon the dirt/dust, she needs a wash.

Looks great! Thanks for the review!

Any word on LED lighting for 2014 Foresters?

We have not have an opportunity to test out our full LED kit, but the license plate bulbs of previous years will work just fine on a 2014.
