Default LED bulbs for high brake light
Anyone found a suitable replacement for the high mounted brake light bulbs for an MY 1987 XJS?

Thanks,

I really dislike the current searchlight strength stoplights when sitting behind cars. I chose to be mindful of other road users a will stick to my incandescent bulbs.

The LEDs referenced are 135 lumens each. The incancescent outer brake lamps and rear fog lamps on my car are over 300 lumens each.
