Went to the boss's home for wine tasting this afternoon.Tried maybe 20 different wines, didn't spit many of them. I haven't been this drunk in a long time. Thing is, I remember I used to go out 2 maybe 3 times a week and get smashed anf only suffer a mild hang over the next day.
F*ck this getting old shit.

I did replace mine with LEDs on the Suburban just because I don't care if folks can read my plate.

Pretty much my thinking as well. I didn't know mine were out either. I mean, how often are you even going to notice these, or even more importantly your brake lights, are out? I never see them. I usually check them if I have to change another bulb (turn signals or headlights) but not always.

The Suburban is now LEDs all around, except for the headlights. I particularly like the backup lights now, which are bright enough so they actually illuminate something. The low beams in it (which are also DRLs) tend to last about 24 months. Seriously considering replacing them with H1 LEDs the next time they go out. I recently had to change the license plate bulbs in our '05 Mustang (first time). Oddly enough it's never had to have a headlight, turn signal or tail light bulb replaced. The FRS I've had to replace low beam bulbs twice (I change both when one burns out) but they are now LEDs.

Good call. You may drive the car forever and never get pulled over but their is no sense tempting a bored cop that has nothing better to do by waving a "pick me" flag at him.

I know several people that have done it with various different vehicles. Those that cheeped out and bought low end kits from Ebay had nothing but issues. The ones that bought decent ones from reputable sources had zero issues. It is one of those things where "You get what you pay for" seems to be extremely accurate.
