As I've only done the front (the rears are silver with a reflector) I don't have a rapid-blink problem (which is sorted by in-line capacitors). No codes thrown on the dash - the car's too old, but does have a field day when you plug in the diag. tool
Thanks for the reply. What do you think of these "built-in resistor" LEDs? Should be bright enough?
