I have been replacing various bulbs with LED. Dash, Parking, Breaks, etc... Some of them are absolute crap. Has anyone else noticed this? nice and bright, but flicker alot, and some flat out fail. Often.

Yes. I replaced the reverse lights in my YJ a while ago with LEDs and they were whiter, but were not as bright as the incandescent one. I looked on eBay for a while until I found the ones that seemed to be the brightest and didn't cost a lot more. Very disappointed.

With the bed gone from my truck and the new set up I went with all LED lighting. They are actually trailer lights though and so far have had no issues

I would LOVE to get really bright reverse LED "bulbs" but it's such a crapshoot right now to find good units. Not the same thing but FWIW I recently had good luck buying LEDs for RV overhead lights from GRV at Amazon.com.
