kpcsgasp Posted May 23 Posted May 23 There is a website called Super Bright LED's. You enter your vehicle information, and they show the led bulbs for every socket on the vehicle. I bought a few for my Monte and their prices were OK. 4 Quote

kpcsgasp Posted May 23 Posted May 23 Does anyone know where to find the custom LED tail light assemblies for Montes? been looking for them and the bulb socket adapters to preserve the stock sockets. 1 Quote
72 Monte Carlo Posted May 23 Posted May 23 Kevin, The club had a group buy on the LED taillight boards back in 2020. I think you can still buy them from this link - 6052 1970-72 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Quote
DragCat Posted May 24 Author Posted May 24 Here is the old link, where I got mine from, there are others out there I believe. The sockets were from Amazon 1 Quote

I looked at the Superbright site, they only had white/amber for IP, so I'll be going with the amazon site green 😁 I'm not doing all of them, just the main gauge pods. Even tho the temp/amp gauges are disconnected (I installed aftermarket gauges) and I don't look at the speedometer I think having the gauges illuminated will look cool. I did find a pic of the back of the IP, yep 15 bulbs 1 Quote
DragCat Posted May 26 Author Posted May 26 Well after all the info that was posted, thanks to all, I went with the green LED's Greg had used for his IP. Thanks for posting pictures and the source info. I tried to order the LED marker lights Jim had used, but Ebay needed to call me with a code to verify 🙃 No cell service in Va, and the land line is down. Guess I'll have to start over after the phone company fixes/repairs tomorrow ☹️ 3 1 Quote
DragCat Posted May 27 Author Posted May 27 Have to laugh, phone company showed up, land line fixed. I verified the new number through a Ebay callback and placed my order 🤣 Lots of good info posted thanks to all, hope it might help others going forward Feeling lucky this am done by 10 with an 8-5 window 🤣 2 Quote
willie Posted May 27 Posted May 27 8-5 window stinks. I get that they need to give a window, but really they need 8 hrs to figure when they are going to be there??? Mark glad your all fixed and done but think that's crazy!!! I can see the 4hr window (it also stinks) but you have a half day to do other things that need to be done. Because you know the min you leave on that 8-5 thing they will show up at your door and leave you the note that they were there and no one was home!!!! LOL 1 Quote

LOL Yea Willie, usually it's morning or afternoon, which still sux but better than 8-5. I figured it was a wasted day so I planned to do software upgrades on the phone, iMac and laptop. Didnt get to the laptop so another rainy day project 🤣 The internet provider needed to upgrade my router, they gave me a specific time appointment which was shocking but also nice . 2 Quote
DragCat Posted June 1 Author Posted June 1 Both the IP LED's and the marker lights were waiting at the PO today 🤘 The marker lights will be on my next rainy day list, the IP will probably go to the pre-hibernation list along with the braided fuel lines. Since I'm probably not going thru any NHRA/IHRA tech inspections this year 1 Quote
72Ragtop Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Speaking of LEDs ...I saw the funniest thing at one of our cruize nites last year. A 55, 56 and a 57 Chevy in a row and two of them had these multi-coloured, "rotating ring", LED headlites. 1 Quote
DragCat Posted June 5 Author Posted June 5 Ive seen those, not a fan, but whatever its their car Quote
