I think I'm going to buy some cheapo LED lights, take 'em apart and figure out how to wire 'em and make my own thing.

do you want to be able to tell there led, like dots in the lenses . if not most advance and auto zone sell led bulbs that will plug right in to the stock sockets.
iam using those. there brighter then a normal bulb's and don't have to worry about them over heating.

Do you have to use a resistor or anything?
