You will have to wait a few weeks - as many as four - but their prices are wholesale. They are super cheap, but they won't be e coded or DOT

I have to warn you though, this site can be addictive. . . I have my eye on a radio controlled helicopter.

Canadian Tire has some in a locked cabinet in the performance aisle.


Custom Truck Parts, Barlow Trail near the old Firestone Tire Plant tower caries a wide range of LED lights from interior dome lights, dash, tails, markers and even several varieties of driving/off road types.

I have bought from them on a few occasions.

Heard good things about:

http://www.dealextreme.com

But never actually ordered from them myself. Your results may vary...

Superbrightled.com

I got my drl from there and they were $20. Shipping was fast and painless.

I've often thought of getting tail light conversion kits to led from there too.

Great place to shop if you don't mind waiting 3+ months for your item.

I bought almost every bulb for my van from Superbright, very easy to deal with and quick shipping but the shipping was around $60 as they use UPS so have them sent to a post office in the states if possible.

Autolismo is great for people in the Vancouver area too, the quality doesn't seem to be as good but the prices are great, they also don't have all the bulbs you need for the entire vehicle, but I've purchased a few for the van.

That name sounds familiar. Are those the guys in North Van on Marine Drive just West of Capilano Mall?

I purchased my interior LED lamps from said guys; replaced the dingy little regular bulbs with retina-scarringly-bright LED panels for around $9 each.

They might have headlight/taillight assemblies too, I did not check.

Autolismo has a website but no storefront, they set up times and places to meet. It feels a bit like a drug deal. :-D

The ones from princess auto aren't that bright. I took mine back. At night not too bad but during the day not safe enough for me
