So I hate halogen bulbs... And GM has odd ways of wiring and designing electrical systems. I have aftermarket projector headlights for my Impala that take H1 bulbs for both hi-and-low-beams(stock took 9006/9005). The headlights are independent. The DRLs and High-Beams are combined. My DRLs run at 6volts and the high-beams at 12volts. I tried buying the DRL harness for the HIDs but I couldn't seem to understand how they were supposed to be wired, AND they took too long to warm up (they're not very effective if I need high-beams in a short amount of time)... SO! I'm looking at the option of replacing the halogens with some LEDs. I had to use resistors for the turn signals because I replaced them with LEDs and got the hyper-flashing problem, so I'm going to make the safe assumption that I will need resistors to keep the DIC from saying "High-Beam Out". I know NOTHING about resistance, or electrical circuits for that matter...
Do I need the resistors?
If yes, what resistors?
I've seen online 50w6ohm and 50w8ohm; Whats the difference?
Does it matter what type of LEDs I get?
P.S. This is keeping me busy and is inexpensive enough while I search for the parts I need for my top swap, so RICH17 can stfu!
