LED Bulbs for Hybrid Lariat

[Jetlat7878]

All interested, this has been my experience with LED replacement bulbs for my 2024 Maverick Hybrid Lariat regarding the taillights. I replaced all bulbs about 18 months ago that were not already LEDs with LEDs. All working great except one of the taillight/brake light bulbs burned out. I tried several brands like Sealight 3157 LEDs but they were not bright as the original GTR LED bulbs. So i ordered the latest GTR Lighting red Armor Series 4257 bulbs. They work great. Orginally I tried Lasfit self contained resistor bulbs but they eventually hyper flashed. I installed resistors for both the front turn signals and the rear turn signal/brake lights. That seems to be the solution for the Lariat. BTW the 3157 bulbs have tabs on either side of the bulb base which prevents the bulb from nesting properly into the socket without trimming the tabs off. 4257 bulbs work great, they have no tabs. The GTR Armor LED 4257 upgrade bulbs are $35 each on Amazon or from Headlight Revolution. Note: the GTR LED 4257 have no built in resistor. Resistors need to be used with the Lariat to prevent hyper flashing. The resistors are not difficult to install. I followed a guy on you tube as he has a step by step video on how to install the resistors. I don't have the link.

Same ones I have. Coincidentally, I also had one burn out in less than a year. I ran them originally for a few weeks before changing settings in FORScan to LED and remove the hyperflash so I attributed that time to burning it out as others on here have experienced with various brands.

Everyone is still waiting for for a bulb that doesn't need an additional resistor (or FORScan). One day.

I did the whole Lasfit kit and Diode Dynamics taillight LEDs, disabled hyperflash in Forscan, and zero hyperflash with no resistors. No problems 8 months in.
