Yeah - actually just be careful because I put LEDs in the front and back and ended up blowing my hazard fuse. Meaning that the LED bulbs have almost no resistance compared to the incandescent bulbs, also putting any LEDs in the turn signal will cause hyper-flashing - your gonna need load resistors for it.

I bought a chrome bulb and an incandescent bulb as well to test brightness and they sucks balls compared to the stock bulbs and the LEDs - honestly at least for the back there is still nothing as bright as the stock bulbs. I should also mention that I am trying to do a red turn signal swap so its already gonna be a little less bright for the fact of red vs. amber alone but I still have had a lot of trouble finding decently bright bulbs.
