I've started digging through the trunk without luck, looked under the bumper and there's the exaust there ... I'm starting to see if the bumber peels off the tail now. Nothing in the search engine was of help.
Ya' think we could gather such information into a sticky?

For the rears, you need to take out the taillights. when you reach your hand in there feel for the two 'light sockets' and just twist. The bulbs will be easily acessible.
As for the front parking lights, jack the car up, and take out the inner fender liner and you will see the bulbs. Do a search, there are numerous posts about this.

You can get four of them, one for each corner, if you get the 6ohm resistors. But why do that when you can save yourself the time and money?

Did people need to put a resistor onto the stop / tail light bulbs as one was brighter than the other or am i getting the wrong end of the stick?
If you did does the resistor in on the tail lights did you put it inline with the wiring for it or scotchlocked onto the wire up whe side? Just wondering as my led lamps should be here tomorrow and im looking to do this

No need to put it on the taillight, since there is no blinking going on. You only need to put it on the turnsignals. And if you are debating between putting them on the front signals or the rear signals, my suggestions is go with the front, much easier access, and don't complicate yourself more than you have to.

It's 31mm. So order the one with 31mm (it's in the 2nd page) from the those domelights.
