im going to try t o switch em like sorrgwa mentioned when the rain stops...but yeah, the first time jackson posted that chart was when i bought them... then i started noticing everyone commenting that they were not the right ones for 01 +reverse bulbs... i dont mind em being a marker light, they seem the same in brightness over regular sylvania bulbs.

yeah but y would u put a single filament bulb into a place where a dual filament bulb normally goes and expect it to light up when you stop on the brake...as the reverse bulb is a single illumination bulb and the brake light is a dual illumination bulb? u can try switching it around but it wont change this (and it probably wont work switched around since ALL of V-LEDS bulbs only work one way so u dont hook them up backwards)

u need a different bulb but you should be able to use that light else where in the car (I think)

i thought those 7443's were the same when i got them from vleds. i had them intended for reverse, but since they didnt fit our years reverse lights i used them where ever they did fit which was the stop light or marker light behind it.

got ya but remember the reverse light is a single filament bulb so it will only light up once, our brakes light up twice....just order those ones i linked to. im currently using them and they work just right

When you get LEDs for the brake lights, you much purchase a resistor. V-LEDS sales them seperately. GL.

um...like normal u wrong u don't have to get ANY resistors but i would like to hear your reasoning....why do u need resistors? i have ALL the leds from v-led and haven't used ANY resistors. i did unplug the bulb from my dash cluster that tells me i have a bulb out (and even resistors wont keep this off) but every bulb i bought was plug and play
