Amp LED's
 
Alright I need some help. I have two Audiobahn amps that right now are lit up with blue lights. I wanted to know how I can change the bulbs with some RED LEDs so the amps will match my interior lighting.. I know im gonna have to solder them on but I was just wondering exactly how I have to do it.. Please someone help!

Not my amp but its the same kind..

Anyone?

You... open it up, look for blue LEDs, desolder them, and solder in red LEDs.

sounds logical to me.

I know that much.. I was just wondering if I would need a resistor and if it will say which is + and -.

I just did this same exact thing like yesterday lol I have a massive audio amp, it had two blue leds on either side of a plexiglass logo plate. with MY amp, cannot say itll be the same for you, the l.e.d.s were already prewired in a series with a resistor in this nifty little circuit board type thing. took the blue ones off and resoldered them, very easy, and kinda fun

Alright Thank You! Would it matter the brightness of the LEDs or no?

Red LEDs are unlikely to be as bright, and the blue LEDs will already have a resistor that will work fine. If one LED works in a circuit, basically any LED will be good enough, excluding like the high power ones like Luxeon Stars.

Alright thanks.. I might get around to openin them up tomorrow and seeing how they are..
