    Yeah one of the guys from v-led's.com got back to me and since I might be upgrading to LED's for the front turn signals, he told me to go with the 3 OHM resistors.:cool:
    Actually the ones I just got are pretty comparable to stock bulbs. Even I was surprised!!:eek:

    Okay so I got my resistors installed and they worked like a charm!!!:D But after taking the truck out in the sun, my red LED blinkers arent as bright as I thought they would be.:( Anyone know of any super bright 3157 red LED bulbs that I can look into?:confused:
