    Housings have a film yes, however you will get hyperflash if you use it in the portion for the turn signal unless you use load resistor

    I ran white LED 3157's in my tails before I got the Spyder's.

    The best way to prevent hyperflash is to change the flasher to an EP28.

    I like how they sell the ep28 at advance auto parts. With a coupon code I can match Amazon's price. Pretty cheap, why mess with resistors.

    Hey guys, I want to upgrade my dome lights to have a red hue.

    https://www.superbrightleds.com/more.../#/tab/Reviews

    Is this is the correct part? Will I need anything other than the bulbs?

    Thanks!

    The center light takes 212-2, also known as 4410 to Superbright. The rest of the lights are 194.

    Well, I got the light but it turns out its not the correct one. I have a dual dome light which uses the like.. bulb version not the fuse looking version. Any idea what type that is?

    Has anyone been able to fix the problem with the front 194s? The problem where the turn signal indicators in the cluster turn on (dimmer than usual) when the parking lights are on. I've been playing diodes for a few hours and can't get any results. Someone PLEASE help, lol. It's mentioned towards the end here, but no fix listed.

    Where are you putting the diodes at? The link you posted is for modifying the flasher. Have you purchased the LED flasher module?

    I got it, I need to get non-polarized LEDs, you have to get them for the front markers to prevent back feeding.

    I did the diode's and still have a hint of illumination on the dash cluster. I hardly notice, but going to can-bus bulbs is supposed to solve the problem.
