oh, and the load they draw is very low.. I have an Autometer shift light that draws more.... Just make sure that when you take those wires apart, that the resistor isn't in the adapter otherwise you'll have to remember to use a current limiting resistor to keep from burining out the LED.. basically on mine I took the cheesy LED's out and put in my own.

i hooked my led but it isn't working correctly. after the install, i turned the ignition on, the led lite up and then went off. i set the utec at 3000rpms for all three outputs, but nothing. for the install, i tapped the power wire for my tuner, and the ground was tapped in pin 9. did i do it correctly?

great, i thought it wasn't working correctly, but i went inside and came back out and it like a charm. very bright amber.

also, if anyone is interested in this light and have a map selector, all you need to do is tap one pin(9) and a 12v power.

Where did you mount it? I plan on recessing mine into the back of my panel when I get some time?

very easy. get the led, tap a 12v source. ground goes to pin 9 on the map selector plug. i just used a old connected and cut the pin out and used it.
