Whenever I use leds for anything,like standard bulb conversions or whatever I'll go buy some APC licence plate screw lights. They are very bright and you can get them pretty cheap. Don't use the leds out of a set of washer lights though,they are not as bright. In order to get the led out of the screw you need to apply a little heat to the screw itself to get the glue hot that holds the led in. Once you get the led out be sure you don't cut the wire too short because the resister is on the power wire(could be negative i don't remember). Try to get a set of apc or optiplex because if you get the really really really cheap ones they won't be as bright. Advance auto usually has a set of either brand for a little over 5 dollars. Hope this helps.
