I'm not sure if it will give an error on the E46's. If the ECU supports bulb out error detection, then you will most likely need a resistor.
The reason I chose OEM over aftermarket bulbs is because of the looks. They diffuse the light and look much better than the aftermarket LED's. Not to mention they last longer too. Aftermarket LED's tend to burn out fast.
