Changing Bulbs and need opinions

I am going to be changing my:

- Sidemarker
- Clearance Strip
- Door Lights

My question to you is.. would LED's work better here over PIAA bulbs?
I have PIAA in the side marker already and its cool.

I was looking into these...

and

http://www.cardomain.com/sku/VARAL211SPBL For the Door Lights

thanks

I find that most LEDs are actually less bright than the regular bulbs. They are also more directional so I'm not convinced about any great benefits to changing to the LEDs in most cases.

Thats one thing I have heard about them being more directional. I am guessing this might not illuminate most of the clearance strip...

For the doors this may be ok im guessing...

in the clear corners, its hard to tell from the pic, but do they seem very directional to you?

most LED's are pretty directional, but if you check out that link in my last post they have these LED's called MATRIX and they spread out the light really well.
