those are top notch bulbs...I have some in my wife's car as well as my current car and the previous. they're bright, have a good warranty and will last a LONG time
That’s good to hear. I’m super excited, but I’m so curious how the bulb is on as a white light all the time without overheating. I can understand the orange blinker only being on occasionally and therefore not overheating. How does it work for thr white light but not the orange?
they have heatsink and internal cooling...they won't overheat
Ahhhh. Okay. That helps me. So they overcome the need for resisters with a heatsink!
the heatsink just keeps them cool...resistors account for differences in voltage use between an incandescent bulb and an LED. these bulbs have built in resistors which is why they don't hyper flash
That makes sense. I realized after I replied it might come across as scarcasm. I’ve built a couple computers, so I understand a heatsink. I didn’t know they had one, so that was a genuine “ah ha” moment. Resisters are new to me, so this is really helpful.
Doesn't the Lariat already have LED lights (front and back)?
What @Darnon said.
What did you use for the cargo bulb replacement? I bought some that worked but didn't fit in the lens. Had to return them. Also looking for stop/tail replacement that is confirmed NOT to cause errors or hyperflash.Thank You for all the info, changed cargo and reverse to LED's
All went perfectly with your great info
Cargo /3rd brake bulbs I had to flip one around that wasnt turning on at first so I’m not sure if that was my error in not having it snug or if they have polarity or whatever and I got lucky on the other two on my first try.
These small LED lights 5-6k are very bright to the human retina when looking at them directly, but the light they make is very poor in reflecting off of objects or the ground. 3-4k is best for this application.
