New LED tail lights 69 Cuda

sorry Dan, I gotta go with Spaghetti on this one. I respect your knowledge of lighting and laws but after weighing the options and reading through pretty much all you had to contribute to the LED topic, I converted my tail lights using a 6" truck light with it's own reflector mounted inside my existing housing. I don't regret it at all, it's SO much better than the previous lights that its hard to describe.
Just yesterday I watched a 69 Valiant go down my street and I watched as he got to the bottom of the hill and hit his brakes... I almost couldn't see his brake lights at all, they were THAT bad.
All these standards that you continually use to justify your argument sound like guidelines for current manufacturers, I could be wrong, but theres no denying the improvement that current technology lighting has on our 40+ year old cars when it's done properly. that's my 2 cents!
