[QUOTE="Gary747, post: 427607, member: 19207"] Thank you for this feedback. I have slowly replaced incandescents with LEDs in several places in/on the Jeep, but I have NOT done the turn signals and may not ever. The headlights and interior were greatly improved when I switched to LEDs, but I don't think I NEED that type of improvement with the turn signals. Unlike my other cars, the YJ does not have an audible warning if you leave your lights on while parked. I have, on three occasions, drove to work in the morning darkness, arriving after the sun has come up, then parked all day with the lights on. I come back to a low or dead battery. My LED conversion has the goal of greatly extending the battery life when the lights are left ON while parked. If I tackle turn signal LED's, it would be for this reason only. OR, I may design an audible warning system to sound if the lights are on and the ignition key is removed (or something like that). [/QUOTE]
