I know this topic has been discussed many times before. But why is it that LED lighs do not work with the E60s in the signals. I've heard that for example as some people have done, that resistors can be put in the trunk lights for LEDs to work with no error, If a resistor can somehow be placed between the light the harness. will it work for the signals, what kind of resistors are needed for the trunk/ license plate lights. thanks for any info.
