anyone know a site where i can order a couple resistors for these leds. i kinda know how to figure out the resistance i need for them to shine their brightness, but i usually ask my dad to make sure, and hes in NC.

On the same line of questioning.. I am looking to start replacing lights with LEDs.. I already checked the flasher.. it goes crazy with no or little load.. short of putting resisters in to put a load.. Is there a fully electronic flasher I can use? The local autozone does not even list a normal flasher for the tib in their computer.

I found this on hmaservice:
Flasher unit
Turn signal blinking frequency
Cycle/Min
85 ± 10 at 12.8V

Hazard warning blinking frequency
Cycle/Min
85 ± 10 at 12.8V

I can't seem to find a part number anywhere though.

See the thing that worries me.. I pulled mine out to take it into the store (and what a pain it is to get to too) I found a couple that would look like they work.. same plug pattern and voltage requirements... but all had the Ability to double flash when there is no load to let you know that there is a bulb out.. with LEDS my car will think there is a bulb out from the lack of load...

as for resistance, this is the website i use to figure out what color needs what ohm.

i've seen some sorta device/resistor that fixes the blinker's eratic flashing, but i can't find it at the moment on the web. i'll look some more...
