Ed
be sure to check out John's fix for the dim lights
Right now there are no dependable led replacements for the older
Square round Cateye lights.
It has to do with the lens itself it is cast for an incandescent bulb
and its properties.
We have built several prototypes for a replacement but they do not
provide the proper amount of light output when covered with the
original lens
but we are still working on it
We do have replacements for the clearance lights in led and also the
small reverse lights.

Hello Ed, When I removed the backup, tail, turn signal lights,etc. there were
dirty bulbs, dirty lenses, and peeling paint,(yellow in some cases). I washed
all the lenses in the dishwasher, ( TWICE), and bot some silver paint at
Wal-Mart to renew the faded and peeling yellow and black paint behind the
lenses. Took all the bulbs out and cleaned or replaced them, and completed an
over due paint job in this area. 30 yrs of dirt removed really brightens things
up. Hope this helps, George Burke 77 FC 31 Charlotte

Ed,
I was polishing my chrome and decided to see if the chrome polish would cut the
build up on the rear lens. It has helped a great deal. I also applied it to the
front lens also. I was using an electric buffer.
