lot of good information here. Just to be clear, when installing the led turn signals do we need something additional for the speed?

just need resistors to prevent hyper flash, that's all!

Why anyone would use resistors when the EP27 cures it all and requires no wiring is beyond me.

I justify spending good money on bulbs that last, not cheap chinglish junk that will fail and flicker in mere months. Let me know how long they last. The couple times I tried to cheap out, all the leds were out in under a year. Never again. Besides, its my money, why do I need to justify how I spend it??

if that's how it works out then I'll take your route. Was just curious as to why you justified it, and you just explained it. That's all I was asking.

No need to get defensive

Just do the ep27 flasher like mentioned. Requires no cutting or re wiring which is great. I did it and problem solved.
