I've searched all over the Internet, and can't find a clear answer. What size resistor do I need to keep my dome lights from flickering. And both sets of lights from dimmly staying on after the truck is off for about 10 minutes.

where did you buy the lights? I got mine from Recon and they don't flicker or stay on at all

Superbrightleds.com. Just ordered replacement festoon bulbs, and cargo lamp/tail light bulbs. Not the whole housing.

+1, never heard of anyone needing them for the interior lights.

The lights only flicker when the door is open. If that makes any sense at all? They don't always flicker. Just sometimes.

I unlocked the truck, and then locked it to get the lights to turn off, and as you can see, the right light is still lightly on. Then, I went into the truck, and showed all the lights flickering. At the end, when I turn on the one light, only the two I didn't turn on were flickering.

I wish! Haha. I'm thinking a resistor needs to be added, just have no idea what size, or where to even get them at.
