Hey guys, I plan on getting new LED lights for my 2004 Dodge Ram 1500. I want to get some really bright white ones, as I have blue now and they just don't light it up enough. Anyways, since they are LED and I didn't install resistors/capacitors, they always have a dim glow and don't work with the push on/off like they should. I am looking at SuperBrightLEDS.com and they now have ones for CANBUS and just regular ones. Am I able to avoid the resistors/capacitors if I order the CANBUS ones instead of the regular ones or not? What is my best bet?

Bulb size is 578 I believe.

Thanks!

 

I had LED's in my 05 Dakota and did not need any resistors or capacitors. Normal LED's worked just fine. Maybe you just need a better quality.

 

My buddy put LEDs on all his lights as well and they also glow dimly. Any ground seepage will power them since they draw damn near nothing while operating normally.

Sorry I don't have a solution to offer either, just thought you'd like to know it happens. If you figure out a solution let me know so I can tell him.

 

That's where I got my map and dome lights! They are indeed SUPER bright!
