Pop one of those in all three light sockets and it should fix any flickering or malfunctioning. Haven't had a problem since then.

Popped in the resistors and they still ain't acting right

Everything seems to work good but I still can't use the map lights unless the key is in the ignition

Mine work when key is out. That's odd. Ran 3 resistors?

Yea they don't flicker anymore but if I push a map light to turn it on when the key is out/off it flashes for a very quick second and turned off completely. IDK maybe I should try a different resistor. Are you using the exact same ones I linked earlier?

Just to make sure I wasn't lying to you. I just tried turning on the bulb with the keys out. They both work. Do you have the same bulb as me?

No I have the HP ones in there now. I forgot they weren't the same damnit that might be it.

I might try some different resistors
