dont have the money at the moment. just a temporary upgrade for now before switching. the question is simply asking about the functionality of changing the bulb. will it work or not?

You might give this LED bulb a try.

Sounds like an idea. Think I'll do same since I saw the lilnk by KornerCarver. Checked it out and has a one stop all. Nice.

If you switch to LED bulbs, you will have to get resistors to keep the voltage/resistance in the system the same, this is for 03 - 05s, as they didn't come stock with LEDs like the 06+ did.

I found this out a few years ago after installing the LED bulbs, and mine would engage the brakes on its own between 3000 - 5000RPM...

Here's another thread on here that explains it...
