Hey guys, do any of you know the wattage of the individual LED's used in the OEM LED tails? Just a single LED, not the entire assembly.

I want to change the rear turn signal bulbs to LED and would like to get a bulb with the same brightness/intensity.

I'm pretty sure this is the part number for the red LED's used on our cars, OVFSRAC8. Might not be the exact one, but the package looks very similar and one of the applications for this LED is automotive rear stop/turn signal lamps.

What you should be concerned with is lumens, not watts. An LED of same brighteness as a tungsten bulb will draw much less current, and hence will need fewer watts to run.
