I got some 3157 LED for the rear. Could not get them to work at all, even with the load resistor, so I just stuck them in the back up lamps.

LED's have been beat to death. VLED.com or frickenbright.com

Yes, you need load resistors. they are not difficult to hook up.
You need to tap the resistor into the two outside wires.
