Early Broncos came with two different styles of brake lights. One style is a completely red lens with no backup light. The other style is more common and has a small trapazoidal clear section for a backup light. I will offer two different combinations based on this information. The LED lights I offer will completely replace the current light bucket. People have experienced different problems when trying to use LEDs in place of regular light bulbs. The most common problems are 1. they won't work under certain conditions; and 2. the turn signals flash EXTREMELY slow. To combat the second problem, see my Accessories page. The most likely cause of the first problem I listed is that the current flow through the LEDs is not being limited to flow in only one direction. I ran into this problem when I made my first set of LED lights. Each light I will sell has a diode placed in each each light's current path. This will eliminate any current flows in undesirable directions. Also, because these lights are made on fiberglass circuit board material and not sheet metal, each light will have a ground wire that will need to be attached to a good ground. I will supply a ring terminal for the ground wire. Below is the description of each style I will offer.
The light shown on the left is for the '67 - '77 Broncos with backup lights. The LED's for the stop/turn and clearance functions are surface mount. The LED's for the backup light portion are standard 5mm size and are rated at 3000mcd each. I've placed the old bulb bucket next to the new panel to show the panel is the same size and shape and will take the place of the old bucket.
This light has 60 surface mount RED LEDs for the brake and turn signal function. These LEDs have a 850 mcd rating. The backup light funtion will use 24 WHITE LEDs. These LEDs have a 3000 mcd rating.
This light has 80 surface mount RED LEDs for the brake and turn signal function. These LEDs have a 850 mcd rating.
