Question Mini LED 7444/7443 amber bulbs?

Been trying to find a LED amber 7444 or 7443 bulb that has a built in resistor for no hyper flash vs add an external myself, but every one I've tried is too tall for the housing or does not have a built in resistor.

Are there any "mini" bulb options that meet my criteria? This is for a 2009 Mazda6 FYI

Morimoto XB LED BULBS are pretty good quality and do not require a resistor, but they are pricy. I'm sure if you search and try you might find a cheaper option but if you are in a rush those are premium bulbs:

THanks, but too tall

Yeah, thanks for using ChatGPT, half of those bulbs are either BS or don't exist. For example, send me the link for "Hikari 7443 Amber LED Bulbs with Built-in Decoder Chip"? The only legit ones are Auxbeam but it's 7443 (but it's pretty massive, not mini) and Lasfit.

Auxbeam 9003 Amber LED Bulbs with Built-in Resistor: These bulbs are small and compact, making them a good option for tight spaces. They also have a built-in resistor, so you won't need to add one yourself.

Truck-Lite LED Amber Turn Signal Bulbs with Built-in Resistor: These bulbs are also small and compact, and they have a wide beam pattern for better visibility. They also have a built-in resistor, so you won't need to add one yourself.

Lasfit 7443 Amber LED Bulbs with Built-in Canbus Resistor: These bulbs are designed to work with CANBUS systems, which can sometimes cause hyperflash with LED bulbs. They have a built-in resistor that helps to prevent this issue.

Hikari 7443 Amber LED Bulbs with Built-in Decoder Chip: These bulbs have a built-in decoder chip that helps to prevent hyperflash and other issues. They are also compatible with most vehicles.

All of these bulbs are designed to work with a 2009 Mazda6, and they should help to eliminate hyperflash.

Appreciate the post. Truck-lite seems to just make complete housings. Found no 7443 from Hikari & the others are too tall
