http://www.superbrightleds.com also has some high output stuff. Those Luxeon 3W white ones would probably work well for reverse lights.

Thank you all for your help. I ordered the lights from VLEDS.com pretty late last night...I got the High Power red ones and the Super Refractor amber ones. I'll wait on the High Power white ones for backup lights...though I might get the ones from superbrightleds.com if the High Power ones from VLEDS.com don't come available soon.

Those are pretty cheap bulbs. I'm going to have to look into getting a few sets.

Need info before I order from superbrightlleds. Will I need to use the resistors? It seems to be necessary.

If you're using them for turn signals, then, yes, you will need the resistors. On the Dakota, then only bulb you can replace without resistors are the backup lights.

You'll need load resistors or flasher kits for the blinkers, I don't think you need them for anything else.
