    Search.....this has been mentioned plenty of times for years. Alot of us use VLeds. Alot of the Amazon crap is actually dimmer than the halogen bulbs.

    If you use LED lights in the front amber or rear turn signal, you will get hyper flash unless you modify the resistors in the turn signal box.

    Not unless you use the VLeds Triton systems.

    Thanks for the clarification - I've heard of bulbs having built in resistors - I ran a few in my 14' Scion tC but in the Texas heat, they would always fail about 3 months after install.

    Maybe VLeds last longer

    I would have to look. I believe they are both regular 3157's as well. I have had a 2nd gen in 2 years lol.
