Question Anyone use a 3157 LED in the front bumper lights?

I have clear corner/bumper lights up front and am curious if anyone running the same setup but using a 3157 LED light. If so, which brand did you go with? Any up close pics from the side and from would be appreciated too.

I tried the led replacement lamps for those and the smart junction box did not like them at all. Installed clear conventional bulbs in the corner lamps for now. Surely someone makes an LED replacement that is compatible.....

An LED bulb that replaces a dual-filament standard bulb, such as the 3157 used in front turn signals and brake lights, requires either a resistor placed in parallel to simulate the load of a standard bulb, or a special flasher that will accomodate LED bulbs that need to flash.
