Do a Google for Daniel Stern lighting. There's a lot of info on that site.

How does one actually order something on the CEC web site? Boy, finding the right bulb is really a chore there. Think the site was designed by a computer geek. The site for LEDs I mentioned above is really easy to use.

I have their in print catalogs. Since they are always adding new incandescent and LED lights if I don't see it in the catalog I just give the tech staff a call and they square me away. Their technical staff is very helpful. I order all of their lights through Ryder Fleet Products. Like many major manufacturers they do not sell directly to the public but through suppliers.

A far more efficient light bulb than an incandescent or halogen and probably as birght as a halogen is an LED one. This site has the 1156 ones: www.autolumination.com Tail Light Brake Light Turn Signal LED Bulbs They're not cheap, $29+ each.

Don't buy the red ones if your car has a rear antenna or have a radio on your tractor. The red ones transmit FM interference. The white ones don't. Can't say about the amber ones. Haven't tried them, because if you put LED ones in for your signal lights, the signal flasher may think there's no bulb there because of the extremely low current draw. Actually, I tried one on the old Benz, its flasher did just that: flashed fast as though the bulb was burned out.

Those LED bulbs seem like the bulb of the future. I hope the price comes down as their use and production increases. It's amazing how bright they are with so little power draw.
I received an AA powered flashlight with multiple LED's as a present, and it's incredible how bright it is.
