I just finished converting all my dash lights in my 54 Commander coupe to LEDs. These are 6 volt pos or neg ground and they work great replacing all the # 51 and 55 lamps including turn indicators. These are #1847 LEDs available from LEDlight.com. I can post pictures of what it looks like if there is an interest. The only snag in the installation process is you need to cut off the the little reflector tabs on the backplane of the dash as the LED is a tad longer and the socket wont fit back in with tab/ reflector in place.

How did you get them to work on positive ground? Can you buy them that way?RadioRoy, specializing in AM/FM conversions with auxiliary inputs for iPod/satellite/CD player. In the old car radio business since 1985.

These LEDs are 6volt and work pos or neg ground. My system is 6 volt neg ground for everything except the starter which is 12 voltsComment
