Here's my suggestion---

Do not use HID or Xenons! They are expensive and---believe it or
not---within a year or two you will see LED landing lights. So just hold on
if you can. In the past 6-8 months LEDs have TRIPLED in brightness. You can
now buy 12Candelas LEDs for about a dollar each. Within 6 months LEDs will
get to 20 candelas for under a buck each, and you only need 1000 cd for a
landing light, so you'll need 50 LEDs.
...EVEN if you don't use Luxeons!

I am within two months of selling white led taillights. The prototypes are
on my workbench. LEDs are going like a house-a-fire.

Contact me off-list.
