Converting to LED lights to the outside of your rig
Anyone on here do it? Was it hard? Got any pictures you can share? Estimated costs?

Yeah, 24 SMD LED's are not 400 or even 100 lumens, probably. You certainly don't need that much output for a marker light. It also makes a difference as to the actual die type used in the LED panel. IOW, a 5050 LED is brighter than a 3628 LED.
If Barney says they are the same or better, then it would be a fairly accurate description of the output, more accurate than an Asian E Bay merchant trying to sell LED bulbs with the other 10,000 vendors and inflating the numbers.
I'd suggest to forget about lumen output and buy a couple LED replacements based on anecdotal assessment. Install them and see if you like them, then order the remaining.
