Trust me, i'm the same way. I think we all are given the fact that we went out and spent money on some nice lookin aftermarket tails. But honestly, you did it right the first time when you neatly installed the lights and plugged in the harnesses correctly. Those resistors are just simply a waste and if we wanna get technical about it, the lights are a design flaw since they gave us POS resistors that heat up like a damn radiator cap and are fire hazards. They should've spent more time paying attention to detail and making tails that wouldn't need any resistors and would not throw an error light.

But like I said....your whip. I'm tedious too, but some things I can let slide. These tails are so nice and clean. She has the best. Screw that error bulb

Are you referring to these from elite auto style? They seem to be brighter than the ones on ebay.
