LED corner lights screwing with dash illumination???

I recently installed some red/clear tails and clear bumper and cornering lights. They look 1000% better than stock even with the fittment issues that had to be corrected. I have LED's in all exterior bulb locations except the rear and front amber turn signals because I haven't have installed load resistors yet. Today after I put the clear corners in I dropped a pair of 19 LED Super White 1157 bulbs in place of the standard incandescent ones. I haven't seen them at night yet, but they look great so far in the daytime. Here's the problem though. When the parking or headlights are on all is completely normal. But when no lights are on, I lose interior illumination to the radio and the climate control only when I press the brake pedal. Odd. For as long as I press the brake, no lights; but then they are all normal when I let up. I have looked at what the exterior lights are doing while this is happeninig and they are all normal. Any advice?

I got them on ebay but you can buy the same ones directly form www.procarparts.com They seem to be pretty good quality and fit well especially compared to my CE red/clear tails and clear bumper lights which fit like shiznit.

I answered the initial queston you had even though it had nothing to do with my question and now you are asking again about some stupid crap that has nothing to do with my issue??? How the fauck would I know what's legal in Arizona??? I live in Texas. And I don't give a hairy rat's **** about your ghetto looking black or yellow or whatever color lenses.

Now, do you have an answer to my question? No? Then Make like the King of Pop and beat it. Start your own thread.

This is your one warning. DO NOT POST UNLESS YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO CONTRIBUTE. After you have 15 LEGIT posts, you can start threads of your own. Please do not wh0re up this any other thread in the process. Try chiming in in your regional forum, or in posts where you can add something worthwhile. Normally, I ban people for posts like yours, but I am in a good mood today.
