[QUOTE="zman, post: 129264, member: 2904"] Not sure if the 1500 has the electronic flasher or not..I would guess not but you do need one if you do the turn signals...also many reports of color washout with white bulbs in red and amber lenses so wherever you use them match the color of the lens to the bulb, like a red lens on the tail light use red LED`s..If your tailight uses the bulbs to light the license plate you will need white LED license plate bolts or another way to light the plate. LED`s can be a hit and miss, from what I researched folks seem happy with the Cree LED`s, as well the 50/50 type are much brighter and preferred in places that the bulb indirectly lights like behind gauges where blue is preffered. I would just go through the manual and jot down the number of bulbs and the number ON the bulbs, probably many are the same size and part. You can get a better deal on bulk purchases so if you have 6 BA9S bulbs you can get a 10 pack for less then buying individually.. I get mine on Ebay , seems the best selection but there are LED stores that specialize in nothing but bulbs. [url=https://www.superbrightleds.com/]https://www.superbrightleds.com/[/url] [/QUOTE]
