A good portion of aftermarket LEDs are not DOT compliant.

Been running them for over a year without issue.

Yeah wait till someone rear ends you and their lawyer finds out you were running non-DOT compliant bulbs. Best of luck.

Just tell their lawyer that DUIboost posted a nice review on them and confirmed that even though they may not be DOT compliant, they're style is on point!.

Ooohhhh I'm worried. Just wait until you rear-end someone in your lifted truck, the bumper goes up over the trunk and into the rear window and kills the passengers in the back seat.

Funny, I installed these bulbs on my 2017 and I didn't need resistor for hyperflash. Dash lights will blink a bit faster but it didn't matter if I installed a resisitor it never fixed the dash lights so I said why bother resistors get too hot.
