They already have LED bulb replacements. I've got one in the tail
light of my coupe.

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?

Subject: [ercoupe-tech] landing light, nav light replacement
Folks,
Is there a high tech landing light replacement for the old GE "head
light" lamp, like halogen or something else that uses current
technology? 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?
