....you put your stock ones back in and return them. Unless they are LEDs without resistors. Then its kind of your own fault.

No, the bulbCheck system is searching for a specific load that OEM halogen bulbs provide. Since the LEDs provide very little power to perform, the vehicle thinks the bulb is out and illuminates the dash light. Your only solutions are to install resistors (which get very hot during use) or return to the OEM bulbs.

I personally don't see any reason to switch the OEM bulbs in the first place, there are many other areas that can see attention instead.
