plug and play? yes. Much brighter, but CCFLs have the edge on them.

These are the ones I just purchased for clearance light, side markers, and license plate. http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/P...id/0/SFV/32481
Haven't received them yet but from what I hear they are a little more blue than some others which is fine because I have blue door LEDs and blue dome LEDs. Should look good for the look I am trying for.
