I guess you can replace the whole lamp units with new ones that use LED's. But I would not even dream about it. The Grimes teardrop lamps on my Coupe are admired at any public display, the lines of the streamline design of the Thirties come to a final conclusion at the tail light. It is a piece of art. I bought it because of that. I intend to keep it in it's original state as long as possible. If I wanted a plane with all the latest Gizmos, I'd go and by one of these plastic planes that no one can remember the name of and there you have all the stuff you want. But then, maybe in the times of miniaturization, they'll come out with bulb replacement lamps that are LED's but fit the standard sockets, who knows?

My nav lights use the old bayonet type socket on the wing tips, much like the cheap flash lights you get at Ace Hardware, but of course bigger. The tail lamp has the two conductors on the end instead of one like the wing tip lamps. Are we stuck with using the old technology replacement lamps?
