Replacing headlights with original halogen type. Don't feel the need for LED.
I am pretty pleased with my HID -> LED conversion. Not at bright as HID but much better pattern, more reliable, far less heat, no offgassing (which fouled a bit of the reflectors). Not as good a pattern as the H4, which has more even coverage.
City lights will be incandescent amber: Philips 168NA LongerLife Miniature Bulb, 2 Pack
EXTREMELY happy with my last JDM AStar LED city lights. FINALLY brighter than yellow incandescent!
Can it be true? I don't need load resistors with this fancy new relay? Please tell me I don't need to splice anything. After what I've been through I'm afraid to go near any wires.
When you are using a solid state flasher, there is no need for load resistors anymore- which waste tons of power, create lots of heat, have to be mounted somewhere safe, can fail, AND introduce more overall failure points in the system. I love mine... just fantastic. Unfortunately, they are not available easily for all vehicles.
p.s. I've seen LED's out there on the U-tube that don't use separate load resistors. It's about time they figured that one out!
As far as I understand a design can INCLUDE load resistors in the wiring harness, but not in the bulb. LED bulbs are severely impacted by heat, so a load resistor could not be integrated into the bulb and produce a bulb that is bright and will last...
