Keep in mind that there are AutoZone LED lights designed for people 
who will get a kick out of knowing they have LED lights, and there 
are high-quality LED lights for people who want brighter lights that 
last longer, use less energy, and illuminate faster.  For an example 
of the latter see http://netdisty.net/ds/aut1157/ and 
http://netdisty.net/ds/AUT1157RI.  (I don't have any personal 
experience with these, but they look like they don't have any of the 
faults of the AutoZone crap, which I did try, and confirmed my 
suspicions that they'd suck.)
