BJ8s use a separate circuit for turn signals. I kept std.
incandescent bulbs in mine; I did put LEDs in the fascia (dash)
indicators; they bleed across a little, but it's worth it to
actually be able to see them.<br>

doesn't matter; polarity does. Most alternator <br>
conversions require conversion to negative ground--since pos.
gnd. <br>
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>
