this guy is a genius! instead of messing around with resistors behind the tail lights and trying to tap or float them, he made a wiring harness that simply connects the resistors at the connection points underneath the truck. luckily I found lights that have a heat sink built in which help with...
following up on this. My break resistors get to 270 after an extended use. this is past the mould point but no where near the melting point. im floating them right now and not having issues. ill report back if anything changes.. or make a more in depth video on the the heat management.. i...
Follow up Ive gotten the Break lights up to 270.... this is past the mould point but not past the melting points of these plastics.. right now Im just hovering the break resistors so they are not near plastic.. working out pretty well.
………uhhhh what. Specify what bulbs (break or blinker) and what brand and lumens that was causing people to flash their lights from the rear. Driving normally caused this??
Nah, there is a lot of room back there. I’m pulling. +40
Just pulled it out and let the blinker run for a few mins, way longer than would happen in real driving. We are well bellow the mould point of the plastic used in the lights. Again my case is extreme. I live in a already very hot desert...
I felt the same way.
Ive seen these instances as well. Which is why I went with bulbs that have a heat sync built in. I used my temp gun and only got a 40 degree+ difference from Baseline after about 10 minutes of constant on use. My base was 110 (AZ) and when fired up the lights under heavy...
I felt the same way, didn't want to mess with the wires on such an expensive car... but, not having the LEDs and going through all the different "error free" ones that didn't fit... finally ate away at me and I got passed putting the resistors on... its like a band-aide just gotta tear it off...
I went through a bunch of "error free" can-bus LEDs because I was trying to avoid the resistor... well I NOW have LED reverse, turn and break.. I did use a resistor for all the tail light bulbs... did a ton of ordering and returning.. I put in the footwork and found the bulbs. much better with...
Hey guys, I made this video because I wasn't able to find much on replacing the crap filament bulbs. I ordered and tried a multitude of LEDs, this is what I found to be the best and cleanest. Hope this video helps cut down on your research and install time.
PARTS I USED:
Load Resistor (6)...
