jbspeed license plate led

so if some of you remember, in the past jbspeed used to sell those led license plate lamps. i bought a pair myself a while ago and installed them about a month ago. since then ive had to replace 4 sets of break/reverse bulbs because they keep dying. I msged jbspeed about this twice and havnt recived a reply in the time of 2 weeks.

just wondering if you guys had the same experience about this and what some solutions are. i dont wanna take them out cause they look really nice so im hoping for a solution that dosent involve that.

thanks!

Got mine in for more than a year and no such reported problem at all. Hope you get your problem sorted out soon.

had mine about 2 years now no issues at all. It might be you were receiving bad batches of LEDs.
