850 Wagon LED Light Conversion- Help.

Post by **Volvo4251** » 10 Sep 2012, 19:38

Hi all,

I bought (out of boredom) some LED brake light bulbs at AutoZone yesterday. They worked fine, except for the fact that they tripped the burnt out bulb light on the dash. No doubt a result of the lower current bulbs- they don't have a resistor either. I plan to convert all of the lights to LED, but I need to know, where are bulbs with resistors sold online? Any one with LED conversion experience?

I converted all but the lights inside the doors. Its a pain, and there is a lot of modifying you have to do to get the led bulbs to fit. unless you can find a place that has them elsewhere. The Map light above the console. for me at least, doesn't like the low voltage, and kinda flickers when its on. there are some posts on the site here about it. as well as google. Try that. I think it is volvo speed that has a complete conversion also.
