Perfect fit for the 2020 Explorer Limited. and for any installation 3757A/NA

The 3757A/NA filament bulb has a slight modification to the side tab to prevent inserting a 3157 filament bulb other than amber, allowing most aftermarket 3157 -Products 3757 LEDs do not fit in the socket. Do these. Their tabs are JUST narrow enough to clear the bushing holes and they fit securely into the rear turn signal bushings on my 2020 Explorer Limited. .Exterior lights still flash normally, so you may not even feel the need to fix them. However, if you have FORSCAN, you can change the BCM code 726-44-02 (Explorer 2020 only) so that the second digit of the code content (x*xx xxxx xx) is NULL. Other Ford vehicles have different codes. Only change them if you are sure you have the correct codes for your car/truck. less glare. Some other LEDs don't like PWM when on, where you see a fast/high flicker instead of a steady glow. These lamps are solid. In terms of brightness, they're slightly brighter than regular incandescent bulbs and a deeper amber color than some other LEDs I've seen. I would say it's 25-33% brighter than the original. I'm not sure how hot they get with the parking light link (low) on all the time since my rear turn signals just flash and mine don't. a chance to try it out (2020 Explorer's front turn signals are LED). VERY happy with these pears. Instant on/off and higher brightness are big improvements. ADVANTAGES: - Steady light even with pulsed (PWM) input - Deep amber color, really noticeably better than some other amber LEDs - Slightly brighter than OEM bulbs but only by about 25-33%, didn't have time to take photos side-by -Side video - fits 3757 sockets with no modification - top LEDs shine well for direct backlighting - LEDs don't appear to be overloaded so no parts of the 'bulb' get hot even when using only turn signals - no polarity issues . CONS: - You'll probably hyperflash in most setups, but luckily most Ford cars can be fixed without resistors - they're not insanely bright - they're a little tall so they might not fit and/or they change beam spread be able. None of these minuses became a deciding factor for me. I will update if anything changes.
