Got mine from enlight - they sent resistors due to code. Work great and easy install.

yeah but people with led tails have issues. if you guys just have the stock regular plane tail lights there should not be issues, i got the led tail lights...i can't find any working bulbs lol

I have the same setup and wanted brighter reverse light. Ended up going with the Phillips 921 LED bulb from Amazon. They barely fit in the hole for the reverse light but they do fit. The light is real white, and bright but it seems I could see better with the OEM 921 bulbs installed. These LED s have a reflector on top i guess the direct the light into the reflector, but since the light goes through the bottom of the lens and not through the back of the lens it might be causing me to lose light. I also noticed some wavy lines in the back up camera since I installed the LED bulbs, cant recall if they were there with the OEM bulbs. No error codes since I put these in either. Left light is LED and right light is OEM

These are the ones I put in my 2015 Sport (LED tail lights). Plug and play, no errors.

Do you have a pictures?

I find that it's very hard for photos to show real world lighting. Possibly if I had taken a pic of the light output in the dark with original in one side and LED in the other it may be more representative, but I didn't feel like waiting until dark!

This pic shows the LED on one side and original on the other. Not very definitive, but I can tell you they are waaaay brighter in reality.

PS: e-brake works....
