Question anyone know of a good place to buy LED's??

I'm gonna make my self some new taillights for my car due to the fact i cant find brighter bulbs... so i did some searching for LED's on the web and the best price i can fine is like $.60 a bulb... now that doesnt sound so bad.. but i need a ton of the little buggers to do what i want to do... so if anyone knows of a good site or store that sells red or clear LED's let me know...

NOT! You'll pay way too much. Go to an electronic surplus store. Get the ones made by "Mode Electronics" make sure that they are the high bright LED's that are 600MCD or brighter (you'll need 50 per side min.). Or get the super bright LED's that are about 1000-3000mcd (you'll need about 10per side min.)

Don't run them without a regulated current limiter. Or they'll burn out in seconds. If you need more info I've bult LED displays before. Drop me a PM

high bright red part# 55-556-6
super bright red part#55-557-0
super brigh yellow part#55-55SB-0

A good store will be able to buy them in bulk. The more you buy, the cheaper the cost per unit.
