Default Front turn signal LED conversion

How difficult would it be to change out the bulbs for the front turn signals with LEDs? It bugs me how every exterior light except for those are LED.

Installed the LEDs today. They are plug and play. No resistors needed! The driver side is easy in and easy out. Passenger side is a little tricky because of the proximity of the windshield wiper reservoir and some coolant lines.

As you can see in this video the LEDs are much brighter. Completes the look of the front end lighting IMO.

Nice. This will sound weird, but I always find that LED turn signals look brighter in dimly lit areas.

However, in direct sunlight, the LEDs will look dimmer.

Do you have a video of them in action in direct sunlight?
