Led lights for 240

And I would have explained that, had you inquired about anything LED, dealing with turn signals. Thanks for being on top of that Curtis. My brain slips every so often when doing write-ups.

Regarding the superbrightLED website, how many lumens should we get for our tail lights? Don't want to be TOO bright right? I believe our tail lights are 1157 model(or at least my 280z is)

Why are you worried about having them too bright? What is too bright?

Too bright is when it looks like brake lights when it's just on haha. Then blinding when braking. From 400 lumens to 80 is quite a big range of difference

My last purchase from SuperbrightLEDs included some of these: 1157 LED Bulb - Dual Intensity 1 x 3 Watt High Power LED w/ Reflector Lens | S series | Specialty & Automotive | Universal LED Bulb Finder | Super Bright LEDs

They are rated at 105 lumens. I felt they were reasonably priced, and they seem to provide good light.

For the single element sockets, a bulb like this: 1156 LED Bulb - Single Intensity 1 x 3 Watt High Power LED w/ Reflector Lens | S series | Specialty & Automotive | Universal LED Bulb Finder | Super Bright LEDs may work well. They are 100 lumens

I think those bulbs could be too tall for the side markers, though.

Mind you, light output is proportional to voltage. Buying and installing the harness upgrades that Dave Irwin mentioned earlier can improve light output.
