Stealthbulbs or jlevis LED turn signals?

[X5ive]

Took care of a simple mod today by installing Hoen Xenonmatch fogs and high beams.
Now I can't decide if I should replace the factory amber turn signals with Stealthbulbs or jlevis LED bulbs. Any opinions?

Has anyone installed the LED's on a 2003 X5?
If so, did you have to use resistors or equalizers?
I called jlevis but couldn’t get a concrete answer regarding whether or not I would need to install the resistors.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

I have had both an I prefer the LEDs. Yes, you wil need the resistors. I like the LEDs better b/c they are white/clear, the bulbs I had were silver and I prefer the clear look better.

Did you have any problems installing the resistors?
Sounds like a few people found the instructions confusing.

The wiring is easy for the front LED's with resistors. I'm not sure how to wire the rear resistors because there is no wires directly attached to the rear directional housing ( very weird). Anybody have ideas?

I only installed the LEDs in the front headlights. Never tried LEDs in the tails. If you figure it out though, let us know b/c I've gone thru 3 tail bulbs in 3 years. You can also PM Cynicalwry on this board, he did my install.
