Subject:Re: ?Brighter Turn Signals?

Has anyone here ever seen the inside of one of the nifty LED turn
signal/brake lights on the new Cadillacs?  It seems obvious that they are
LEDs, given the even brighness and the snappy on/off (no fadeout like an
incandescent bulb).

I've been thinking of getting a big ol' chunk of Lexan, taillight sized, and
drilling 50-80 holes in it, stuffing colored LEDs into the holes, and wiring
up the thing as a taillight.  I'm curious as to what I will have to change on
the van to support that electrically.
