I mounted mine on top of the black resistor that came with the lights. I know the resistors get very hot and mounting on plastic not recommended, but I believe that this plastic is made to resist the heat. I have not experienced any problems so far.
OT: dragon - Have you put any spacers on your MRR-GT1? I'm planing on putting 10mm H&R spacers on the front and back. These spacers are hub centric, and I want to make sure they will work with the GT1s (I'm worried that the GT1 hub size is smaller than the the hub size on the spacer).

hey how many resistors do i need? cause i installed a resistor to the stop lamp, but the bottom leds are still blinking. do i need a resistor for the bottom leds as well? the error message says left lamp, surround or something like that

I am just waiting for those lights, not stock right now in Germany.

1. It was never installed
2. The resistor harness connection is not 100% (just reconnect securely)
3. The resistor is faulty
Good Luck

ok my friend and i tried to figure out why the left stop lamp was still blinking and still, it blinks. we tried swapping resistors again, checking the ohm and voltage of every wire and still, it won't work when the daytime led is working, the top blinks. and when the stop lamp works, the bottom starts blinking. what else can it be?

today I installed the led tail lights with no problem. there is no need for more resistors on my car .(2007)
if there is somethinh wrong with your any other light issue the led tail lights are blinking. my left front fog light was dead and so left led tail light was blinking. when we changed the dead fog light every thing has fixed.
