Hey PDX, what LED's did you get for your reverse lights/ turn signals? Did you use the resistors too?

VLEDs for everything in the rear and resistors were used for the blinkers. Also using VLEDs for the front corners, driving lights, and fog lights. Aipex8 knows best and I bet he will chime in.

Doesn't matter which LEDs you go with, you'll need resistors.

If you've just got LEDs for the rear signals, you'll need these resistors:

If you've got LEDs front and rear, you'll need these:
