Go here, pics on page two: https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...0&page=1&pp=25

I've done this myself. Despite what you may think the LED bulbs are VERY bright.

Also, I did the blue interior LEDs. I get compliments on both of them all the time.

No, I think he's talking about a complete replacement to resemble the G35 coupe, not simply replacing the bulb to an LED bulb.

The TSX doesnt have any new tail lights out there like those Civics and shit. No one would want anything like that on a TSX.

you can do a custom tail light conversion and have it molded to fit your trunk.

no offense, but why would you do that, do you drive around in reverse a lot? i think the leds would look best for the blinkers and brakes.

Will I encounter problems if I dont install resistor kits when replacing my tail lights and front lights (not headlights) with LEDs? Do I need a resistor for each LED bulb if so? I did some searches and couldn't find the specific answer. If this has been discussed a million times like I know it has could someone please provide me a link. thanks

No, all LED replacement bulbs are meant to be plug-n-play, so they already have a resistor included internally. This does not mean they are guaranteed to not burn out from some different reason though. If for some strange reason the bulb doesn't have a resistor included, then you'll need a resistor in series with each bulb... but I've never seen that.

The only time you need to include a resistor yourself is when you're building LED lights from scratch component by component.
