Our LED bulbs will usually give you longer life than standard incandescent tungsten or halogen bulbs and will draw a fraction of the current a standard bulb uses and they burn much cooler. How can you lose? There is an LED bulb for most applications and we carry both 12v and 6v (for many older American car applications) as well as LEDs in both Negative Ground (Earth -ve) and Positive Ground (Earth +ve) or dual polarity (-ve/+ve).

Installation Video
One of the best features of a semi-sealed headlamp is even if you take a stone hit on the lens your headlight will continue to work.
We also offer standard and extra bright sealed beam headlights and semi-sealed halogen headlamps from only $30.00 a pair.
Standard aftermarket headlamp disclaimer for "off road use" on all LED and Halogen headlamps. Headlamps may vary from image due to supplier availability.

For your Stop/Tail Lights
Super Bright Red/Red LED Bulb 1157 replacement
These LEDs are the bulb you need for most LBCs that have a Red/Red tail light lens. These bulbs are a direct 1157 replacement bulb Bay15d base. With our LED bulb you will get the advantage of a full 360 degree bright light. If your LBC, such as the early MGA, also uses the bulbs as a turn signal and stop/tail you may need an electronic flasher "can" available from LBCarCo or any good local auto pars store.

Super Bright Indicator/turn or stop LED Bulbs 1156 replacement
The perfect LED bulb you want for most LBCs using a separate indicator or stop bulb. These bulbs are a direct 1156 replacement bulb Ba15s base. With our LED bulb you will get the advantage of a full 360 degree bright light. If using in conjunction with an 1157 Stop/Tail LED bulb your LBC may require a ballast resistor installed in the line. Not all LBCs need one, but if you do we have them available. One is needed per bulb. If you tow a trailer and use LEDs you also may need these ballast resistors. Some LBCs that may need them are the TR250/6, Austin Healey, SPM from 1972-on, late Spitfire. Dual Polarity (-ve/+ve) for these 1156 LED bulbs

Ballast resistor for LED indicator bulbs if needed use part number 170-965 priced at only $8.00 each.
For most LBCs with sparse electrics which could be up until the mid 80s or so there most likely is no need for ballast resistors for stop/turn. There may or may not be a need for a ballast with turn signals, depending on the type of flasher module installed and in a few cases where the car uses the flasher relay box 141-400 for example.
Because so many of these older cars have had flasher module transplants and there are so many circuit variations, I think the best way is to install the LED turn signal bulbs and test them along with your LED Stop/Tail bulbs. If the flasher runs at a high rate, as it would with a regular bulb outage, then install an electronic flasher. If switching a left or right turn signal on results in all 4 lamps blinking (front and rear), then ballast resistors are needed at each bulb.
|
With the LED Indicator bulbs (turn signals) you may need to use an electronic flasher "can". LED bulbs draw so little current that may not trigger a mechanical flasher "can" to blink. You can try your existing flasher "can" first, or upgrade to an electronic flasher "can" when you upgrade to LEDs. The electronic flasher "can" will work with all bulbs including standard bulbs.

I wanted you to know that I did NOT need ballasts for the rear LED bulbs in my MGTD 1953. Worked perfect. And one other thing... The new LED headlights in my MGTD also worked perfect. So much brighter now!!!!! And easy to install, was definitely worth it... I can now drive safely at night!!!. RVT-AZ.
Just wanted to let you know the headlight kit for my 71 MGB arrived within a few days intact and it was a simple process of installing the new headlamps. The difference in brightness is amazing. Thanks for the great product and the outstanding service. M.M. - FL.
My order arrived today. LED Headlights and brake lights are all installed and sure do make a difference! Thank you for your assistance, we are very happy with the outcome. And nice touch with the shortbread! I will bet it's easily 20 years since the last time I tasted that! Thank you very much! R.A. - MA.
Thank you so much for your site, super excited with the new lighting throughout our '64 MGB. First time we have been able to see the gauges at night! (And headlights are awesome) B.P. - IN.
I installed the headlights, they look great! It will be an unusual night time driving experience to have that much light eminating from a TR6! Thanks, P.D. - Ohio
Just wanted to let you know that your headlight parts and other globes have arrived, and the headlight conversion is really quite brilliant! I have also installed the small LED globes to the front (Parker) lights, and they are also working well. Same can be said for the rear Brake lights! Seriously good. Thank you again for the brilliant parts for the car! The change has been incredible. T.P. - Australia
I have in the past ordered LED headlight sets for my Bugeye and the MGB GT from LBCarCo. Absolutely the best LED conversions sets on the market. Holy Crap! Those lights are bright! Just ordered six of the LED 170-972 instrument bulbs. Thanks. M.M. - CA.
LED Headlamps arrived . Installation went well. Very nice addition to my Healey. Lights are a vast improvement. Thanks M.W. - AK.
Got your 170-171LED Bulb today for my '44 BSA - JESUS it is BRIGHT - even if it is unfocused it's still bright :) G.B.- Ontario
Hi Jeff. just to let you know that the LED headlamps are great. Hardly no draw on the generator. Fit perfectly. Also the brake light LED works great. Very pleased. C.G. - FL.
Your LED bulbs (1157 / 170-941) are fantastic. Much brighter and immediately on. I need 3 more sets for my other cars! D.P. - FL.
Hi, Jeff. I'd like to submit a review of the LED conversion kit I purchased for my Austin Healey 3000. Installation was very easy. Anyone with a couple of screwdrivers can do it. The installation video on your site is very clear, and explains how to ensure the bulb is oriented correctly. I'm pleased with the results. The LEDs are, as expected, much brighter than the sealed beam halogens, and, after I adjusted them, illuminate much further down the road. Yes, they are 'whiter' and if you are a stickler for originality then they may not be for you, but if you want increased functionality, these can't be beat, particularly for the price. Also, the LEDs use much less power, which is important to me since I still run the original generator. Now running my lights has almost no impact on the ammeter. Thanks for the great deal! B.S. - CA.
I recently installed your LED headlight kit on my BN2. So far quite pleased with the results. C.R. - KY.
Hi Jeff. Just wanted to let you know that I received headlight kit + two tail light/stop bulbs. I installed rear bulbs and kit bulbs in my existing 'retro lights'. Everything works with positive ground as you promised and the brightness all-round is amazing! So far I have just tested in the garage. Can't wait to try the lights on the road. Thanks again. Roger - Ontario
Jeff, these headlamps are 'pretty darn nice'. First I have found that they look correct on an MG. They installed in about 30 minutes on my MGB and the light was so impressive over the halogens that I am ordering another set for my Magnette. Living in the sticks, I should have a better chance of seeing the deer in time when driving at night. Mike Ash - VA.
Bought your led headlights and they definitely make night driving more relaxed than it had been. F.P. - IN.
I bought these LED headlights for to replace my POS ground stock 1951 MGTD headlights. Everything fits and the lights look and work great! Now I can drive at night and see the road. All that was needed to "plug and play" was an adapter (171-400) to match the original wiring harness to the new 3 prong. (not normally needed for most cars) Just make sure to wire the ground to the black wire on the new adapter and all should be fine since they work with either POS ground or NEG ground. The other wires are for low beams and high beams. Lani Spahr - MD.
Installed LED headlight conversion this weekend. Very pleased with lights. Thanks. L.M. - CA.
I received our new LED headlights for 1962 MGA 1600 Mark II and completed the install. Works great! D.C. - PA.
I just installed the headlight LED conversion that I purchased from you and it was SOOOO easy !!!!! It is on my '53 MGTD.
The headlights are SOOOO bright now! Especially helpful because Tucson, AZ is a designated city to help with the telescope observation on the mountain that we have here (no lights on highways and many businesses keep their lights lower at night). The old lights were almost dangerous at night. R. V. - AZ
