Is there a thread about changing all rears to LED? Specifically how to make the brake LEDs dim for parking light feature?

Default Map Lights

Just did the map lights in my 98 T/A and they were not 44mm. 44mm was too big to fit inside the housing.

Picked up 578 Canbus 41mm 42mm LED Bulb 300LM Error Free Festoon Bulbs off Amazon and with some needle nose pliers to close up the tabs they fit and work great!

I would consider updating the master list.

Default Turn signal will turn on but not blink

I got some tinted tail lights and turn signals so I put in L.E.D.s when i went to turn i noticed the indicator stays on, but doesnt flash. Do I need a canbus L.E.D? I have no idea. I looked in the owners manual but no luck... any help is appreciated!

Frekingdylan, you should just need to swap out both your flasher units under the dash for a pair of CEC Fully Electronic EF32RL LED Compatible Flashers. You can find them on Amazon or eBay, etc. Don’t even waste your time trying to use anything else.

You will also need to add a 50W 6 Ohm LED resistor, one behind each tail lamp. Mount these carefully because they will create a lot of heat. On my Camaro I secured them to the sheet metal tail panel with high-temperature RTV sealant, and this method has worked well for me on both of my Camaros. These resistors are available on eBay. Just do a search for "50w 6 Ohm Load Resistor for Car Indicator LED Lamp" and you'll find them for $2.23 each.

Others may have other suggestions, but what I'm telling you has worked for me on two (2001 & 2002) Camaros, each with the SS spoiler and its LED CHMSL, and each with functional cruise control. The 2001 SS is an M6 car and the 2002 is an A4.

Good luck and let us know how it turned out!

You don't need load resistors. You only need "No Load" Flashers. I have LEDs and no load flashers.

I plugged it into the stock flasher socket under the dash.
I'm using a "Keep It Clean FF552NLF No Load Fixed Flasher"
I paid $15 a few years ago on Amazon.
The original listing is marked as unavailable (which had decent reviews), but there is a new listing with reviews saying it didn't work for them.


Check this thread:

Whitebird00 had a good reply on there of available options.
One of those others may work better.

Updated list to address possible issues with the map lights in 93-02 cars and added a note about flasher modules with regards to LED conversions.
