no problem man, i use that site almost exclusively. you might be able to find certain things on there a buck or two cheaper at other places, but ive used it many times, and their products are quality products. id rather pay the extra buck or two knowing i will actually get it in the mail, and it will actually work.

Default Resistors

If I install LEDs for blinkers, cargo light, taillights, do I have to worry about Resistors or is it going to be plug and play?

For the turn signals and the tailights you are gonna need inline resistors or the the leds wont work properly... hope that helps

if installing more than a 4LED bulb - say a 6LED or 8LED bulb in the front and rear blinker do i need to have more than one resistor to compensate for more LED's

Below are my 3 options which one would be best
