Do you need Resistors for LED bulb swaps?

Hey all, looking at doing LED low & highbeam swaps which I know are plug and play, but want to do LED turn signals and all Rear brake lights. Was wondering if anyone here has done the swaps mentioned above and if i need resistors as I want to keep the stock housings, thanks!

I put Philip's LEDs in my 2012 5.7 (front blinkers, tails, reverse, 3rd brake/cargo) and they all work, the blinkers just blink fast and give me a warning in my instrument panel. I bought resistors, just haven't installed yet.
