leds keep blowing tail light fuse

so i installed leds for my license plate and those were fine. today once i installed two more into the front door puddle lights and two for the parking lights i blew the tail light fuse. id like to make the parking, puddle, dome, and map lights led but how can i do it without blowing the fuse instantly?

update: found out that its the parking bulbs that keep blowing the fuse when i convert them. i switched the trunk, puddle, reverse, and license plate lights to led and everything is fine. i guess there was too much heat in the headlights or something? anyway next is the dome and map lights. does anyone think there will be a problem with blowing a fuse with those? thanks!

Mine did the same thing a figured it had to have something to do with my fog light rewire.. But it turned out to be my dimmer switch failing.. I unplugged it and put it back in and it worked again! Just thought Id share in case youd like to give it another go with those bulbs
