Any advice how to a prevent "led 168 bulbs" from flickering?? See pictures



Hello all. Trying to change out the candle looking yellow OEM lights to more match the OEM Xenon next to them. Unfortunately looks like a disco party currently. I'm assuming it's a voltage or impedance issue. Anyone else been sucessful with changing out the yellow candle looking bulbs for something that matches better with the OEM Xenon? ( I have active curve in case that makes any difference)

Happy 4th Everyone!

Tom

RE: Looks like I found the answer with some additional searching. "
ERROR FREE CANBUS 8 SMD LED T10" seems to do the trick. Happy 4th All!

If you can't figure it out hit up AZN Optics on here. From what I've read people have been very happy with his LED lights.

You need canbus units to work properly. Also, constant current IC drives will help regulate power.

Thank you- Can you PM me a plug and play fix for the pair? (possibly the fog light option as well.)

Thank you!
