im thinking of doing this too.. cheaper than buying the whole unit.. especially the tails

edit.. where is the flasher unit? under the hood?

No, its under the dash. Just turn on your hazards and feel around until you grab something that is clicking. It think it should be blue...

Auto zone sells a relay that's made for led's and keeps it from flashing like crazy. Like 12 bucks or something like that, and its just a plug and play. I thought it was easier just doing the relay than resistors IMO. Has worked fine or me.

Same for me. I went with the relay route, and havent had a single problem with it.

So u still had to use a relay with those corners? I would have assumed that they would have had something built in already?

It was weird actually. When i first bought my LED tail lights, i didn't need the relay. But when i got the corners, i then got the rapid flash. Don't really know why, but at least its been fixed. You wouldn't happen to have any explanation, would you? I've been a bit confused by it...

U got me man, I'm wondering myself haha. I had the same deal with my tail lights when I installed them. I wanna say the tails have a resistor built in already, that's why we don't get the quick flash. But with the corners there is no built in resistor, so u get the quick flash. Hence the need for the resistor or led type relay. Sounds right, I'm gunna go with it lol.

Same here. As long as it works, i'm not complaining...

I really do appreciate all of the help guys, it seems this will be easier than I thought. I mainly want to do it because because whenever they're off they look clear, but when they're on they're DOT approved amber. The silver/amber bulbs are hard for me to find around here for some reason.

*Just changed to the new link* I found these as i started looking. I just wanted to get these on here and let you know of them. Not the cheapest though...

I found the red/whites, though i doubt they will work. They are a good bit cheaper, so i'll give you the link anyway.
