Turn Signal Bulb Question

Hey guys, first I wanted to say how helpful and supportive this community is. Second, I wanted to know if these bulbs would work on a 2006 TL. The size fits i guess but I don't know if I would have to get a resistor kit or something. Thanks, you guys rock

I just ordered the Nokya yellow bulbs (7443).

Also, I'm pretty sure they are, but are your headlight cleared/blacked out? Because if they aren't, it would make a minimal difference swapping the bulbs as the amber would still be there as a cover.

..Just making sure!

you will need a resistor if you are putting leds in or else it will blink too fast.

try to get bulbs that have leds from the sideview as well. especially since you removed the reflector, you will have a good amount of light loss. having leds on the side will give a reflection off the chrome piece and also light off the side of the headlight.

just kidding i found them.. load resistors

is it going to be a problem if i dont install them right away?? are they necessary to have when LED's are installed, or are they just used to slow the blinking down?
