If you are experiencing hyper-flashing after installing Ezkoncepts LED Tail Lights, LED Turn Signals and/or Switchbacks, then you will need to install resistors to eliminate it. You can choose to either install them directly on your tail lights or headlights. It’s up to your preference. Both methods are listed below. Most members noted that the headlight version of the how-to was much easier.
What You Need:
- Quantity (2) – 6 ohm Load Equalizers (50 Watt LED Load Equalizer)
Note: Each side covers front and rear (up to 4 led turn signal bulbs total). For turn signal led bulbs, the equalizer must be spliced across the – ground wire and the + turn signal wire feeding each led bulb.
Where to Get it: http://r.ebay.com/eAe1VF
Price: $6.49 (Each) x 4 *(as of December 2017)

General Information:
The load resistor simulates the resistance of the incandescent bulb and restores the turn signal to normal operating function with the led.
Install on your Tail Lights
Note: When removing the taillight assembly, you do NOT just pull out the red glass. The painted frame portion between the glass and trunk lid is a part of the taillight assembly.
Install on your Headlights (This is much easier)
Look for Red/Black & Blue wires (DO NOT touch the green & orange wire)
Then strip both Red/Black & Blue wires
Strip the ends of the resistors:
Wrap the ends of the resistors to the exposed wires on the headlights:
I electrical taped the hell of the wires to make sure it secure, no wires exposed and no moisture:
Here is my resistor on the metal part of the bumper, the passenger side is just hanging.
