LED headlights in a 6 volt car anyone?

I have to say I agree with MikeK. I have the LogoLites, I have the 25W halogens and I still went back to the old cheap 32/50cp bulbs. They might not be as bright as the LEDs but the focus correctly and put the light where the driver needs it and where oncoming drivers need it.


Another observation about the LEDs. You need to make sure you have perfect wiring connections to use them. With the stock setup my lights would flicker and would occasionally go out if I hit a bump in the road. This doesn't happen with the halogens or incandescents.


I took a bunch of pictures comparing the focus of the different bulbs. I'll have to find and post them here.

Very true on the fitment issue. If you read the description of some of the bulbs listed at; https://www.ledlight.com/6-volt-nega...ed-lights.aspx (many of the bulbs can be used - or +) the bases are somewhat smaller. Considering how often bulbs get changed, guess could use shim stock to fill the gap.
