Ok, Rudy, what do I need to get rid of the light out indicator...it has to be a voltage thing....lol
Anyway, I like these bulbs, so if Rudy doesn't have any quick fixes, I will see what I can do once I get into installing them...voltage equalizer....whatever it takes...lol

Ray,

I have 4 new load resistors if you want them. I tried them on the bench before installing and they get extremely HOT! I am sticking to the colored bulbs myself. I can bring them to the Dragon or mail them.

something you guys havent thought about, if you;re running hids and all led's
just pull the cluster out and remove the bulb.

The downside to the resistors is that they do infact get very very hot. so you have to be careful where you mount them.

Im just going to pull my cluster out, because im tired of looking at the bulb out light, as well as the bas/esp and abs lights due to disabling traction control

I just put colored bulbs in mine also... I did the LED for the license plate lamps and installed the load resistors..but there is a good place to mount them on the inside of the hatch... I didnt want the hot resistors inside the rear fender....I havent found any chrome paint to try painting the bulbs with yet... you can buy chromed amber for the front..

I have 2 brand new clear sidemarkers that I bought from sowardcustoms. I have not installed them nor have I even opened the plastic pouch. If these were flat sidemarkers like the OEM ones on our car I would keep them, I don't care much for the bulbous look of these. I paid $87.68 total with shipping. I will sell these for $85.00, shipping included, for anyone in the continental US. Any takers? I can take credit card payments over the phone or paypal. PM me if interested.
