i just got some led tail lights for my 06 and i was wondering how i would hook them up do i need to cut off the stock bulb socket and wire in to it how would i wire them

 

you have to take the bulb out of the harness. than plug the harness from the led tail light into the stock lighting housing i believe.

 

Correct.

 

so no cutting on any of the lights just plug and play ive also heard that i need a resistor what type and where do i put it does it mean cutting wires im not putting them in the reverse lights just the big tails on the back quater

 

ahhhh you bought the cheap 120 dollar ebay ones??
you need a resistor for those
my buddy got them and he never wired the resistor in. imo i don't like them i like my ipcw ones. best led tails for the coupes. a lot of people don't like how they stick out a lot but i like them there sex at night

 

funny story

i had those LED Tails for like a year cus i didnt know how to wire them in and when i got them it was winter in chicago and i just got tired of freezing my ass off working on my car outside so i held off on them. well one day i got bored and was looking at it and decided to try so i proceeded to take apart my trunk and get my wiring kit ready and all the tools and i couldnt figure it out so before i cut it i made a thread simular to this one and i posted pics and asked for a how to....

low and behold someone said "dude those are plug and play" i plugged them up and they worked i was SO SO SO PISSED, i had those damn lights forever and didnt even know how to hook them up and it took me like 3 mins to get them done.

that was my stupid moment in car history.

 

are you talking about the ipcw ones or the cheap ebay ones?

 

The LED tails that look stock are completely plug and play. No need for any weird ass wiring jobs. IMO these look the best because they look completely stock but they're LED. Nobody makes any aftermarket light that I find tasteful, so I stuck with these. If the lights in question look like mine, all you have to do it plug them into the light bulb socket and they're done. That big goofy looking box thing is the resistor that's built in.

 

the ones i got are from kingsource.com not ebay i heard bout those cheap ones i dont know if ther lpug and play

 

hey,

I'm interested in getting led tails and it sounds like you know what your talking about. which ones should I get, and from where? (As for best quality and longest lasting leds)

I bought led projectors on ebay, which I love, but the damn leds burned out in like 2 months, and haven't replaced them yet, and have to figure that out too...

 

The LEDs in the projectors are just standard 5mm LEDs. You just got to attach new ones to the wires and you will be set.

 

ok. thanks man. any idea where I can easily get them?
