LED Replacement bulbs - Turn Signals, Marker Lights...

So I've done a few searches and haven't come up with a whole lot.

From some of the research I've done, replacing some halogens bulbs with LEDs doesn't always produce more light.

I had a front marker light go out this weekend and started thinking that instead of putting another basic Halogen 194 bulb in it's place, why not put multi-panel LED bulb in?

What I want is more light and for it to illuminate to 100% brightness quicker (the latter mainly for front turn signals).

Any one have any experience switching turn signals and marker lights from Halogen to LEDs?

Thanks!

Vleds.com is the way to go. I've tried other companies I've found here and elsewhere but nothing matches their quality or customer service.

Are they brighter than stock? If this helps ring any bells, I like how bright the old CTS turn signals are... that really noticeable amber.

They are much brighter than stock. For turn signals I STRONGLY recommend their V3 Triton bulbs. Nothing I have come across compares. The V3's are pricey, but worth every penny. I've been using their products for a few years, first on my 05, now with my '13, and I have no doubt I will be buying their products to replace, at the least, the front turn signals when I trade up to a '15 or '16

I ordered all new leds for every bulb in the car. Ordered them through superbrightleds.com. I was happy with the results.The bulbs weren't that expensive and had a nice light. I recently replaced the side markers and bulbs with a different type.
