3157 LED bulbs
I have a question. I want to replace my rear 3157 brake/tail light bulbs on my 03 screw. With LED bulbs. The old bulbs serve as the brake and running light. The leds are one I guess...does anyone have these and do they work correctly?

You may have a problem doing this.
The reqular bulbs have low resistance to operate the flasher and even affect the transmission operation.
The LED operates on very little current so is not enough to be sensed correctly.
There is a work around for this but you will have to dig that info out yourself or someone here could supply it..
I don't reccomend you do it.
Good luck.

Sounds complicated.. I think ill stick with the stock ones. I have LEDs in the reverse lights, license plate and the whole interior looks pretty sweet. I have euro tail lights and just wanted to add some leds.
More trouble then its worth
Thanks guys
