LED Tails

[RompinRam]

Alright, well I have a bulb out in one of my brake lights. So I'm just gonna make the switch to LED's. Next weekend I will be tinting them so I might as well go brighter because of that. Just want to know what bulbs you guys have swapped out with, or if it is just a little more expensive to just get a set of LED tails. The better LED bulbs I saw were like 20-25 a piece. I want to replace my driving and brake lights with LEDs. Topper 3rd brake is already LED.

So if anyone can share what they have done it'd be appreciated!

You're gonna need resistors. You'll get the hyper blinking going on.

I know I'll need resistors, just wondering what everyone has used and what not.

 

[RompinRam]

Bump!

 

[TheMaddog]

I used some **** ones at autozone and I replaced those with the ones I switch them out for.

And other than that. You're good

Unfortunately, I just have the one set. If Teddy doesn't want 'em......they are all yours!

Done deal bro, just let me know. Happen to have any resistors around? Shoot me a price for everything.

READ THIS 02-05 Ram owners before buying PNP LED bulbs for your stock tails!

that being said, to have some that are bright enough to be good, i would just buy some aftermarket tails, if you were an 07-08 ram i would suggest the spider LED bulbs, but im not sure they make them compatible with the 02-05 tail light circut boards

JJ, you can go ahead and send em to Mike P. it's the holiday, I'm feelin a little generous and he wants em haha.

[MikeP]

JJ Do you have the ones for the 3rd brake light also?

 

[Demon-HeMi]

These are the spider LEDs in the 07 tails in case anyone was interested

Nah, I just happened to have these here. I don't stock this stuff, just remembered seeing these sitting on the shelf...........I think I ordered them in for a customer, and they had to back out. I dunno. Just getting them off the shelf.
