Alright. I've had my clear corner reflectors for about a month now. I'm sick of looking at them just sitting there. I will be ordering my LEDs pre-wired with resistors. I plan on having 10 on each side. Now this might be a dumb a$$ question but I haven't the slightest clue on how to get started on the wiring. Please help.

 

Acree is the god of L.E.D. you should contact him

I just tapped mine into the parking light wires, but I didn't have resistors on mine Never had any problems.

 

How did you run them? In series/parallel?

 

I don't remember any of that from my HS physics class, sorry. All I know is I connected + to + and - to - of the parking lights and it worked fine. Sorry if that's not much help.

 

This made me laugh.

That is how you correctly wire leds that are already correctly wired, if that makes sense.

To the OP, since you bought individual leds with resistors on them, what is the resistor value? What voltage are they made to run at? The best way to wire leds without resistors is in parallel banks of series. If the led runs at 3v, then you need to run them in group of 4, with a resistor at the positive lead of the beginning led of each series branch.

Theres a good thread on this sight with docs & pictures ,got my 6 lights and clear chrome reflectors and am going to pull them off the car as soon as the garage warms up ...
Run Them In parallel. and use with resisters already built into the led wires ...
