I thinking about getting the all clear taillights, and i was wondering if I could put LED bulbs in them. I know that there is issues about the LED's not working right when you put the turn signals on, is there anyway to fix this?

Any help would be appreciated.

thats because there isn't significant voltage drop with LED's. So car is like thinking that tuensignal is out.so it flashes really fast.
I once heard that with creative use of resister, you can fix it. How, i don't know.

I've heard the LED bulbs suck. They don't expand out like regular tail lights so all you see is a golf ball size brake light.

Click to expand...
I saw a 96-98 with LED's and that's exactly what it looked like.
