Not needed in my car!

Nah, doesn't need it. I bought LED replacements for my 6C as well, they came with those resistors for the canbus error, but to my surprise, I've tried installing them without, worked just fine. For my own sake, I still changed the load type in the end, but either way, it worked just fine without.

Same result here - warnings up on the dash, which is a shame because the light is brilliant. Off to find some with resistors...
