Re: LED tail lights
what are referred to as CANBUSS bulbs are often referred to as "error free" bulbs also and are so defined because they have the necessary resistance built into the bulb and shouldn't create dash indicator light errors. just my opinion, but with modern LED bulb technology, i would not add resistors to wiring because they generate heat and most locations don't provide either the space or the ventilation to protect against that, but each to his own. supposedly a way around some of that would be to add a digital flasher to your system, but i'm not certain exactly how much of the exterior system that might cover. i'm sure 180 would be more knowledgeable than i on that. as far as LED technology, please keep in mind that without some type of resistance (like what is built into CANBUSS bulbs), some LED applications will have a tendency to flicker. that is even in systems that don't have dash indicator lights (canbus systems vs non canbus systems), so regardless , in my opinion, for virtually the same price a non canbuss bulbs it make no sense not to buy what are often referred to as "error free (canbuss) bulbs" regardless of the application (interior/exterior or whatever). i will have the taillight/stoplight LED bulbs recently ordered tomorrow and should have them installed over the weekend if you wish an updated report, but i do not anticipate a problem. i certainly don't hold myself out as an expert on anything, but can only relate my own personal experiences. i converted virtually every light (both in and out) on my 2004 commemorative edition corvette convertible to LED, but someone had marketed a "system" that was installed as an addition to the fuse panel which covered the entire lighting system both in and out.
