That's a play of words, considering light emitting diode is a solid state device!

I clicked the link and my computer said the link went to a site that was known to be worthless, must be CarID. I wouldn't buy from them if they were 1/2 price.

Here's some info on LED vs plasma.

All LED Lighting - Dr. Bulb - LED vs. Plasma in Detail

I'm not sure what a "plasma LED" is, since it is two different lighting technologies. I have a feeling it's more of an advertising naming gimmick than an actual technology.

After reading the above link I would stay away from LEP, with this statement..."LEDs turn on instantly, while plasmas take up to a couple of minutes -- Luxim claims 45 seconds to reach full brightness. Also, plasma requires a longer re-strike time (re-igniting after being turned off) or the light will perform erratically. LEDs can be turned on and off instantly without an impact on the light quality."


To each his own.

That's not a very good deal. If you're inclined to replace all your instrument cluster bulbs for LEDs, you can buy all of them for less than $20.

I replaced the blinkers and high beam indicator bulbs with LEDs and that was a huge mistake. They're way too bright and strained my eyes during night time driving. I put incandescent bulbs back in for all the indicator lights. I replaced the larger 194 bulbs (backlighting) with LEDs because you can adjust the brightness with the dimmer switch.
