AutoZone carries super-bright LED light assemblies for the 92-95 GA's. They are made by a company called JamStrait. Tail lights and rear turn signals are part# 3157R. They will replace your incandescent bulb # 3057.
They also have the replacement corner LED's in hyper-bright amber bulbs...part # 194A.
Go check em out. I just put some on my car...they look pretty neat...and as a bonus..they last practically forever..so you never have to worry about burned-out tails again.

There are LED bulbs that will fit any car and the jamstraits are well known here. Does your ABS light come on when you installed the LEDs in your taillights? That's the only problem keeping me from having nothing but LEDs in my car.

Your turn signal arrow will blink faster if you put one of those Jam Straight LED 3157 bulbs in there.I put one in and noticed my arrow blink fast like a bulb was burned out,I took it out,put my stock one back in,it was fine,put the LED 3157 back in,it did it again,well took a positive wire and negative wire,used a battery charger and hooked everything up,the LED's worked. You have to get this thing that elminates the fast blinking of the arrow(turn signal light) inside the car.LEDs don't use as much voltage so the computer thinks a bulb is burned out when in fact its not,atleast the LEDs.

Vanishing....that's b/c you have a thermal blinker. I have an electronic one. No probs here :) they work just fine.

Its actually something you don't buy,its already part of the car,its located in the dash.You can buy it but its more like a replacement part.

Hey Crash,I just finally realized why the 92-95 and the 96-98 are differen't....The 92-95 brake lights and turn signal are part of the same circuit,the 96-98 have sperate brake and turn.I should have known that right away,cuz Im making some custom clear tail lights and Im converting my turn and brake into the same circuit by buying a tail light converter to do it.

the car had a THERMAL blinker installed when I first got it. It went bad...so I bought an electrical one instead of the thermal one. Mine was located up under the driver's footwell about even with where the instrument cluster starts.
Thermal ones look like a small aluminum cylinder. The electrical one i have is made out of carbon fiber no less...lol

OH..just to let everyone know...the LED's aren't as bright as the incandecent bulbs.
I'm looking for some larger ones for the brake lights, as I have the LED's installed in the blinkers only in the rear...and in the front sidemarkers.

My flasher unit was way up inside the dash right next to the fuse panel. I've since relocated it to a much more reachable location.
