They already make those, and they are cheap as dirt. They come in 3, 5,
15, 33, 45, 100 LED donuts in a variety of colors. Search the web.

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.
