Led resistors for 2014 Silverado

[14HighCountry]

I’ve ordered led bulbs and I’m wondering how many resistors I need. I have a 2014 Silverado and since I have 8 bulbs that blink does that mean I need 8 resistors and have a resistor on each bulb? Thanks

If you're talking about 8 LED bulbs that hyper flash, then yes, you will need 8 resistors for 1 on each LED bulb. Until you have resistors on each LED bulb, your whole left side or right side will hyper flash even with resistors until the entire chain has resistors. @pgamboa sells resistors for the tail lights and they will work elsewhere, you just may need to splice some wiring if no spades are present. Not a hard thing to do. Probably hardest thing to do is pulling the front turn signals out of the housings and splicing in resistors. Not sure about '14 but my '17 was a PITA for the passenger side.

Since the rear turn signal uses two bulbs, you want (1) 3 Ohm resistor OR (2) 6 Ohm resistors per side.

The fronts need (1) 6 ohm resistor per side.

If you cannot get 3 ohm resistors for the tails, you can use (2) 6 ohm resistors wired in parallel per side. (2) 6 ohm. (1) 3 ohm.
