Default LED's

Put smoke lens on my 06 FXDCI and using a red filiment bulb in tail light...and I've got to say I don't feel to safe with this set up. Question (1) If I use a LED bulb (only) in there will the folks behind me see a difference, (2) Is a load equalizer necessary for this one light. Any feedback will be appreciated. Thanks.

as long as it is not flashing you will not need a load equal. they may or may not see a difference. it all depends on what bulb your going to go with... do not get one that faces strait back. you want one that has them in all directions! the one that faces strait back SUCKS! takes a big brake light and makes it the size of a marble
