i was wantin the 5 arm ones. do you think i would need the load equalizer? also, which one would i get. btw im not eletrically engineered but my dad is, although if i have instructions, i could do it.
EDIT:
also, any of you have real 3rd brake light covers? id like to get some then paint them brilliant black metallic or smoke chrome them to match my wheels (leanin towards paintin them) but all i can find are cheap "decals" on ebay. i had one for my ram and it was billet but had it chrome plated, but damn, cant find anything for these dakotas

you need to go throught each bulb and decide what socket configuration you have and compare them to the bulbs. you may also have to swap out the dodge socket and wire a new socket in place that accepts these bulbs

ya i dont really feel like swapin out a socket, id rather wait andfind something thatWILL fit in the oem housing as is, dont really want to wire in a harness, but i suppose i may.
you need a load equalizer for any LED application for the stop lights and turn signals, front or back. I would say go with the 5-arm one myself, the more LED lights, the brighter, so get as many as is offered. The load equalizer works in connecting frojm the + wire to the - wire, basically tricking the one board computer, so tha tit doens't display a light out error on your dashboard. I had to install 4 load equalizers on my truck when I converted to LED tail lights and turn signals. a good place to get load equalizers is vleds.com. I like those lights though, they're kinda neat!
EDIT:
These lights seem to fit in the original 3157 socket for the existing bulbs, so you shouldn't have to cut anything and replace a socket. You will have to cut the wires to put the load equalizer in the line though.

they're pretty nifty looking! I've never seen anything like them before. They aren't too hard to install either, if your dad is good with electronics, and have a pair of wire strippers, takes about 15 min for each light.
they're pretty small, right behind the tail light fixtures is a small tab of metal, get a couple of self drilling screws and force them in there, one screw for each load box, they shouldn't be too big...mine are only about 2" long by 1/4" wide...oh..also, 3M automotive tape will hold them up EASILY!
