I want to order a LED replacement bulb for my tail light; I need a simple plug & play, I don’t want to take the lamp apart, I just need a brighter bulb.
I searched the site Boneman recommended & I found 2 bulbs that will fit on my bike.
Please help me decide which one is better.
Here is the 1st one – this is called “Dual Function Motorcycle Tail/Brake & License Plate Lamp”.
It has 19 Red LEDs facing the lenses, and 6 White LED (for license plate) radially mounted.
I thought this is good since I need some light to go to the inside lamps diffusers.
The diameter of this bulb is 2.5mm (I think is identical with the OEM bulb which I took out & measure):
Motorcycle Dual Function Tail/Brake & License Plate Lamp
The 2nd one is just a simple 24 LED replacement for 1157 Bulb (I think this is what is the type of bulb that is on my bike - 1157).
This also has 6 LEDs radially mounted & 18 facing the lenses, but here I can buy all white (which I will prefer).
The diameter of this bulb is 2.6mm (I think it will still fit in the housing):
24-LED 1156/1157 Bulb Specifications
Both cost the same. Please help me decide which one is better (or other LED bulbs you can recommend).
Thanks in advance.
