Default Unsure about LED tail lights setting off bulb failure signal ...
<center><img src="http://www.goingfast.info/04_05/ebay_sales/images/a6c5_grey_led2.jpg"></center><p>I did a search and could not get a clear answer on whether or not they would. I know LEDs draw less power. I want to get the ones shown here. I see several vendors on ebay selling that style but don't know if they are the same quality.
