PIAA Xtreme 168 wedge bulbs for Sidemarkers
will these bulbs give errors for using them as sidemarker bulbs?
they are the Xtreme Wedge Bulbs 168
12V T10/168
Part # 19172
Item # H-222E

im currently using the Bimmian ones wihtout error, but need to change them cuz the lighting is fading.

how do you know whether or not which bulbs will give errors or not? what factors affect it?

thanks

Ya, ur correct cause the PIAA are still 5 Watts, so it won't throw any codes versus the LEDs need resistors.
