I have a 2009 Lariat F150. I was wondering what size resistors do I need for my brake lights? Thanks

I put in 1 3ohm resistor per break light. If you use 6ohm you will have to use two per break light....one for each bulb.

Do you know the wattage too? And would you mind telling me where you got yours from?

I found mine on e-bay, shipped from china for like 10 bucks. I'm pretty sure they were 50w.
