Can't say for sure - but if the resistance is any different from stock (likely), you'll get an error code on your obc

They claim it is not due to built in resistors. (that and the plug and play nature is what attracted me to the product in the first place)

As a general rule of thumb, I only use OEM bulbs since the OBC detests anything less! To win the ongoing war with the electrical gremlins, your ordnance should be OEM.

Exactly my point - if the resistance of these bulbs is any different from oem - the OBC WILL throw an error. Doesn't mean they won't light up, it's just that you'll throw a fault everytime you turn on the car.
Heck, folks get an error message when the stock bulbs are just starting to fail-
