LED Replacements for 70-71 Cuda Road Lamps

The factory road lamp brackets are not formed correctly and must be "bent" to get the lamps in a better location.

Thank you. I'll do that until I can get a sheet of paper between the bumper and bezel.

Well, turning on those Amazon LED road lamps created a lot of static/distortion from OEM AM/FM stereo. More distant stations didn't even come in. Doing some research I found that this very common with cheap LED lights, even some headlights. No issue when turning on my Summit LED headlights at least and turning off the road lamps made the static go away.

The general consensus on a solution is clamping on "Ferrite cores" to the wiring of the affected lights. Some even put them on the radio power and antenna. Results were better but not as good as before those people converted to LEDs.

Anyone else encounter this???

Here is a side-view photo of an original, survivor 1970 HemiCuda's road lamps. You can see the factory brackets do not aim the road lamps very effectively. That is why they must be messed with to better aim the lamps.
