It's been a while since I had to drive my '78 in the dark. The stock sealed beam headlights had me squinting the whole way to work. As soon as I got there, I ordered some 9" glass headlight housings with replaceable H4 55/60 watt bulbs. After installation and alignment, they're only a little better. I've upgraded a '95 Tacoma similarly and bought 80/100 watt bulbs for it. It was a great improvement. Can the 280 wiring handle 80/100 watt H4 bulbs? -
There are a number of 7" LED headlights available from GE and others. They are expensive, around $250 each. With other LED replacements around the house and shop, the LEDs use much less power, operate much cooler, and produce comparable light. They would seem to be perfect for improving the lighting on my '72. Has anyone used the LED sealed beams? -

I have made only one set of 240Z LED tail lights for the sole purpose of selling on this site only. If you have seen my "posi burn out" video and noticed them there or even seen my gallery, you'll know what I'm talking about. Here's what the lucky winner will get... One set of 240Z tail lights (Left & Right) They have been torn apart, cleaned, polished, refitted with Super Brite L.E.D.'s (14,000 mcd) and wired to run the same as most tail lights are (parking lights on upper half and brake lights are both upper and lower sections. I polished the plastic as best as I could. I removed the inner reflective plates and reworked one of them for each of the Reverse lights. they're much brighter now. The parking lights consist of 12 red LED's The brake lights are all 50 LED's The upper plate has 32 and the lower plate has 18 led's I polished the chrome and repainted the inner black of the center trim pieces. I also inserted new felt into the lower drain holes. There is one screw in the middle of the center trim but it's barely noticable. This was neccesary because it's nearly impossible to seperate the two halves withouth snapping the center holding pin. The small screw is much stronger than the original plactic piece anyways. I have put a lot of thought and hard work into these, not only because it's what I do, but because I know that a few of you had stated your interest in a set. I did a better job on this set than the ones that I put into my own car. I am asking for $225 and a decent set of tail lights in return (a kinda core charge-so I can build another set in the near future.) Keep in mind that these are (100,000 hour LED's) This means that they can stay on for over 11 years straight (24/7) 365 days a year for 11.41? years. That means that they'll probably outlast the car. For a better idea of how they look, check out My gallery Or check out the posi-burn out video, even in the daylight, they are brite enough to easily be seen through the smoke. Or the video I made just for this thread LED taillight video on "putfile.com" it takes a little while to load up but at least you'll see what I mean. E-mail me and I'll get back to the first person who can get the Money order and spare lights into the mail first. I WILL make more at a later date but I'd like to see how this sale goes first. And remember that the lights you send me will most likely be rebuilt for the next set I make, so make sure they are at least rebuildable for the next guy. Thanks for reading, Dave. -
I keep being asked to show pictures of my LED converted tail lights, Front markers, LED sidemarkers, custome tail light panels and other similar items. So If you have had your Panel modified, Tail lights swapped for something else, or if I did your LED Conversion, PLEASE Post a good picture of your rear-end. (no pun intended)
