LED lights

Does anyone have any experience swapping out the tail light and indicator lights and replacing them with LEDs?
I was riding in front of MrsB last week, and she commented that it was easier to see the reflective stripe on my jacket than it was to notice my indicators :roll:

There's a bunch of places that do custom retrofits... but I've yet to see anything specifically for my Bandit. So it looks like I've got to find small amber LEDs for the indicators (and get a load equalizer, right) and I might as well get a larger red LED for the 21/5 W tail light. Maybe some LED bars too...
 
You can plug in led "bulbs", available at auto parts stores, but the cheap ones are dimmer than standard incandescent bulbs. There used to be a guy who made complete conversion kits for the tail light, but I haven't heard of them in years.
