[DML] LEDs for the Cigarette Lighter, Headlight and Hazard switches

["drdhdmd" <doctorDHD@xxxxxxx>]

FWIW:  I just installed the "#74 wedge base" type LED for the cigarette 
lighter lamp and the #8 fuse blew.  After a closer look I found that if 
the LED is installed 90 degrees from its proper position, that this 
will cause the short circuit, because the wire leads of the bulb are 
contacting both bulb connections.  I've heard that people have had 
problems with LEDs in these ares but I did't read that they found the 
solution.

BTW: The LEDS are available from superbrightleds.com....
