    Alot of the LED lighting has special requirements, but in my case I found a type that come from China that don't need special electronics changes. However, the one thing that has held them back for me has been the design of the clip that is supposed to hold the bulb in place. It's a plastic part that is not as thin as the metal clips on the halogen bulbs. Also the plastic is a kind of sleeve that locks in place on the shaft of the bulb. Turning the bulb to lock them into the permanent holder on the lens body has not worked so far, so I have not finished the installation. I will give it another try eventually and report back on how well(or not) they work!
