Congratulations!! Your installation is now complete in your 2019-2023 Chevy Malibu. If you experienced any issues during your installation and unable to complete installation, please contact us for assistance. If the  LED bulbs are experiencing hyper-flashing, flickering, an error code issues, then load resistors for this application will be required to be installed.
