I will add to my Neighbors post...The higher the Amp rating.. the more the WATTS.. ( given all are at 12 volts) so the 2825 would win the Wattage contest and be brighter, without an effect on the wiring based on that small upgrade.

I got the 2825 bulbs at NaPa this weekend for my GTO and they now have a new part number. They made a bigggg dufference! Something like #1711 or close to that. I'm on the road so can't check. I also just bought some LEDs to replace my #57 standard bulbs off Ebay to replace the VERY dim lights in my GTO dash tach.

Has anyone tried these type of LED 194 bulbs yet? Pretty cheap too. 10 bulbs for around 15 bucks.
