Curious if other have had consistent LED failure over the rear license plate? I have ordered several different kinds of LED to include products from Superbright and VLEDS, and all work great for a while but then fail (i.e. totally burn out, or start blinking, etc.) Should I use a sidemarker LED resistor? It seems like the OEM bulbs last a lot longer. Am I doing something wrong, or is that bulb life pretty typical?
