alternators aren't common--so just get LEDs with the correct polarity <br>
for your car (likely neg. gnd.). The 'D' in LED stands for diode, which <br>
block current flow in one direction, so if you get the wrong one the LED <br>
won't produce light.<br>

In attached photo, 1157 LED is in driver-side (LHD) light; orange tint <br>
is camera bias, the light is red.<br>
