Led question

Looks like I got the wrong ones. Returned them. Something weird about the LEDs. Any places where I can order good super white LEDs?

OK. Not sure what the CAN bus has to do with it but the BCM does monitor current flow to the lamps. Many LEDs do not draw enough current and the BCM thinks the bulb is burnt out. It would seem those LEDs have a low enough resistance to keep the BCM happy.

Lots of threads on LEDs. Try https://www.google.com/#q=site:the370z.com LED

I've bought LEDs for two Zs and two 4Runners on bother ebay and Amazon; dirt cheap and very good. I went a little nuts and the Z lights up like Yankee stadium (as does my house).

It funny how I can see the bones in my hand when I shield myself from the map lights.
