There are a lot of them. Your local auto parts store will sell them.
For the most part, they don't work worth a damn and are a waste of money.
Maybe in a few years things will improve.

Hello BMW owners,

I have 1999 323i, with regular bulb-lamps for its lights (headlights,
signal, tail lights). I know there is an option to replace the
headlight with halogen -- but I was wondering, I see that there are
LED lights to replace regular bulbs for flash lights and some lamps
for home. Is there any similar products for cars? I don't think LED
is bright enough to use for headlights, but I think it can be used for
signal lights and taillights as new cars used these days.

The replacement LED lights I mentioned for home lights have the same
screw for the socket but just with LEDs. So new LED lights can be
used without buying whole new one. I was hoping to find similar
products for tail/signal lights for my car.

Does anyone know such products?

Thanks.
