Rear Bulbs

[stuie]

Hi guys another of my brake lights has gone second in 6 months, probably due to way too much start stop traffic, anyway been looking about and have found LED replacement bulbs which im hoping will last longer, my only concern is with the brake warning light on the dash, has anyone got any experience with these? Also any recommendations?

hi iv got LED reverse bulbs n there really good bt iv had my is200 3 yrs n iv only replaced the rear brake lights once, could be the bulbs your getting bt if it still happens with the leds could b a wiring problem, is the warnight light the handbrake light? and is it on all the time or just when ur bulbs brake?

if your getting LED bulbs you will need 4 load resistors or the warning light will come on soon as you brake or put the lights on...

you will need two per side one for the light power and one for the brake power both go to the light earth..
