Those who replaced the turn signal bulbs with LED ones...

People who replaced the front and rear turn signal bulbs with LED 1156 bulbs, what did you do to make it work?

I saw this on ebay to make it work... has anyone tried them? If not what did you do about hyperblinking or not blinking at all?

i also wanna put in 1156 LED turn signals in my new diamond clears. I also want amber ones for my new red/clears. But i cant stand the hyperblink. From what i understand you need a resistor. thing is im not sure were it goes. do you need one for each light ? or only one resistor. id assume one for each light to account for the lost load from each filament bulb. whats the correct resistor ohm....ive seen 470ohm. 470K ohms. im sure someone knows im curious myself...oh does the ersistor go on the + or - side of the bulb

http://www.v-leds.com/ The load resistors that you need and instructions to install them can be found here. Check the FAQ.

The main reason for me is because I have GEN II for my tail lights and it really goes well with the whole LED theme. Another reason is because I got some LED turn signal bulbs that are purely yellow and not orangish.
