LED Convertion's
So reading and Reading and trying to wrap my head around the LED's.
Am I correct in assuming that the only place the resistors (50w 6ohm) are required is on Rear Directional and Front Directional Lights?
I want to get LED Bulbs for Map, Vanity, Interior and Side Markers and understand Resistors are not required?
I'm stumped on the Low and High Beam Bulb replacement thou. Are Resistors required on them?
I also know the Morimots and Infini's dont require the external Resistors.
So Far I changed the Reverse Light Bulbs to LED, I have Sharp Light Innovations with there Harness and Bulb for DRL SwithBack that I'm Installing this weekend, and tomorrow Morimoto Fog's will be here so doing that project.
I would like to go LEDS as quite a few have. Future Tails will be Morimoto or Infirni not sure just yet. But keeping Stock Headlight Assembly for now.

The stock housings don’t play well with LEDs. I used Vette Lights and bought the HID bulb for low and the conversion for the high from halogen to HID. The DRLs require resistors and I used bulbs from underground lighting that have built in resistors and did the same for tails. I used the fogs from Vette lights. For all other bulbs I used Auxito.

For all the interior bulbs be sure to go with a high-quality bulb or source them from C6 specialty vendors that have experience with the bulbs. The interior LED bulbs emit RF waves that can interfere with the RCDLR attempting to communicate with the fob and result in problems with any or all remote fob functions. They can also cause problems with radio noise. Just be aware in case you have any future problems in these areas.
