So I did a search and found information about how to keep the LED Cargo Lamp lights from staying on when the switch is in the off position. From what I read, I need to put a resistor in line to make the cargo lamps work correctly. But here is my problem and questions:

The aftermarket LED is a sealed unit, so I can't open it up to wire in a resistor. And looking at the pigtail there are 3 different colored wires (I'm including a picture of the pigtail). My questions to those that have done this before:

1. What resistor do I need to get?
2. Which one of the 3 different colored wires do I need to connect the resistor to?
