Tail light & indicator bulb size
« on: May 23, 2014, 12:48:01 PM »
Does anyone know the bulb size of the tail light or indicator for the People 150? As I'm thinking of changing them to LED. There are LED bulbs available which can fit into the exist socket if you know the correct bulb size.

The tail light is 1157 dual filament, led works fine. Turn signals are 1156 but leds won't work without modification to the winner relay. The flasher works off of resistance of the bulb and leds have hardly any internal resistance. Go to superbrightleds.com they have the best selection and sell high quality stuff!!!

Thanks BettinANDlosing, that's a great help. I've checked out superbrightleds.com and located the relevant LEDs. Do you know which flasher unit is required for the turn signal? Thanks

You need a 3 wire flasher that says "works with leds". The turn signals are going to take some work, not just plug and play. You can also put resistors inline if your good with wiring. Just google led 3pin flasher.
