Got my Samsung 31mm 6-LED bulbs for my puddle lights. Took them back apart and swapped bulbs. I wouldn't say they're 3x brighter but are a more white color and a tad bit brighter.

Also installed Samsung 42mm 9-LED dome light too. Again, compared to the one from Canada it was maybe a tad brighter and definitely was more of a whiter light to match the map lights.

Worth it all? Yeah, my interior lights and puddle lights all match in color temp now and I believe they are the brightest possible.

Spyder LED red light smoke tail lights should be delivered today... Will be 100% LED by dark.

Yep with his recommendation on them, I finally ordered some. This is the place he got his from.

I'm curious if they'll just "work" or if I'll have pull out my headlights and put a load resistor on them.... I'll find out this evening.

Thanks, they look nice...interested to see if it drops the load so the front hyper flash as well...

good luck...

so do the tails have built in resistors?

These are suppose to have built in resistors.... My guess though is that'll I'll still get hyper flash due to the fronts... We shall see.

With incandescent bulbs upfront my spyders led tail lights did not need any load resistors they were PNP

Yep that's when it should show power. Whenever you dome light is on it'll show power.... Maybe they timed out right when you tested the wire and reason it didn't show anything?

I had the voltmeter plugged in when I hit the unlock. hmmm
Been trying to figure it out but no luck yet.
Where did you pull the ground?
From the brown wire?

Crap.... Man, I'm not sure. I'll see if I took pictures of the wire when I get home... For the ground I used the same ground wire as the turn signal... Try using that as ground for voltmeter, see if it'll work then.,
