LED DRL Question
LED DRL Question I've been researching for hours about LED DRL's and all I can find are threads about switchbacks. All I want is an LED bulb that's always amber, works as a blinker, and doesn't melt my lamp. Can someone point me in the right direction by making a list of the exact things I need to successfully do this? I keep reading about resistors too, I don't have a clue where they go and how you'd wire them up, lol, car electronics isn't my hot spot. Thanks!
all i did was get some cheap ones off ebay for like 8 bucks when i put them in and they didnt flash so i bought a load equalizer from autozone for $10 cause i didnt wanna order one and they work perfect very simple

Thanks guys, I didn't realize it was that easy. You guys think the ones that need the equalizer are the ones bought from eBay and the ones that didn't came from one of the big name LED vendors? I just want to do things the right way first, lol

Verdad Gallardo never purchased ones from the bigger vendors but the ones i got from ebay wouldnt flash with out the load equalizer the ones i got didnt have to be spliced either they came with these clips that you just crimp on to the stock wiring took 5 minutes.
Alright, I'm ordering electronic flashers AND load equalizers just incase one or the other doesn't work, lol. One more favor guys, can one of you guys post a link for which 3157 bulb you ordered from superbrightleds? There's different styles so I'm not sure which one would be best in the housing, I assume the tower style? thanks!
^^^^ this I got my LEDs from superbrightleds.com, new sockets & flashers from autozone, new housings off ebay, and done! easy do-it-yourself kill some time project.
