These LED tail lights look pretty nice and for the price dont seem bad. Has anyone ever used them? Do I need an adapter of some sort to make them blink normal? I had heard that if you put on LED tail lights they will blink fast unless you add some sort of adapter.
I've wondered about those as well. Where did you find them for that price? I may be interested as well.
Just searching for these I found them on Ecklers, on that page it shows a pic of the light with a pigtail that appears to just plug into the OE light socket so I'm going to guess this does not have the required resistor built in to make them blink at the correct speed.
There's also a "Frequently Bought Together" grouping if you look further down on the page. That group of items includes an LED-specific flasher so I'm guessing you'd need that to make these work right. Found on Ecklers Site

United Pacific also makes the adaptor, if you need them. They may have included a resistor, which defeats one of the advantages of LEDs (low current), but means it will work with the stock flasher(s). I needed two in each of my cars (79 and 80), along with one switching adaptor base in the turn-signal spot.
I documented everything I did to my 80 in this thread, including the 3-wire LED flasher adaptors I used.

I have those and they work great. They plugged right in no problem. As mentioned above, get the groundable flasher module and you are all set.
My friend took this pic of me on the road.

I just swapped out the bulbs only [from superbrightleds] with no problems whatsoever. Blink fine, light up fast and very bright.

Anyone use these LED tail lights?
