1972 LED brake/directional bulb question
I would like to replace the rear original 1157 incendescent bulbs in my 1972 vet with LED equivalent bulbs. The original turn signal flasher is the two contact Tung-Sol brand. Can anyone tell me if I have to replace the flasher at the same time so i don't lose my turn signals?
Anyone recommend how many LED's to have in each 1157 replacement?
Thanks

Right...I have the correct one on the right side and it's the two blade Tung-Sol. That's the one I may need to replace...yes?
(BTW, I bought the car new in November, 1971.)
