Anybody have specific experience with a good LED for the 1936. So far all I have heard is issues with focusing the light due to the lenses and reflectors in the 36.

Re: 6 volt LED headlights
It depends on what kind of light you are looking for, if you want to read street signs, see birds on branches LED is good, if you want to see the curve coming sign a tenth of a mile down the road get halogens
I have a new car headlight from Mercedes (1800$ without it's electronics), the low beam is LED, the high beam is halogen, I am going to cut it apart to get the led unit |

Re: 6 volt LED headlights
I have LEDs in my VW camper and they focus perfectly. I also have them in my 35 coupe and can't see the difference in focus on the back wall of the garage, but I have yet to go out on the road bird-spotting!

Oh, and they are also illegal to retrofit in the UK
