View Full Version : LED brake light for CD5

Hi all, I was thinking of making up some LEDs to fit inside my CD5 rear reflector cluster (above the signal and reverse light). I think the height of the brake lights is too low which

makes the rear look somewhat less sporty at night. I think it will look much better with a row of red LEDs at the top cluster and the stock brake light at the bottom cluster. If this

turns out well maybe I'll convert the stock brake lights to LEDs as well. That will look sick! Has anyone tried this out yet on their CD5 accord? I was thinking if this was possible. All

comments welcome.

Never seen someone did this before just by browsing the net etc. And also I presume this is going to be for 94-95?

But you have nice idea there... any pic would be great :)

There are some really top end LEDS, you can get off eBay called 'Bellof' a guy did a review on these forums of them, they are pretty damn bright, but i can't justify $70 for a pair of 9w LEDS, afterall they are LEDS!

I would love to see how much current those "Bellof" led's draw, because i doubt they're 9 watts.

I've seen 3 watt led's with more heatsinking on them to stop them from frying up.
