Default V-LEDs Flasher for 2IS

I know this has been asked somewhere before, but on the V-LEDs website for their Lexus Flasher they state "NEW! Parking light flash confirmation WILL function."

http://www.v-leds.com/BlinkerWarning...viewsTabAnchor

Can someone confirm this or it still won't work? I'm not sure if this is a new flasher from the old ones that it seems people are having problems with the parking light flash.

I'm about to get LED's for the front signals.

Thanks!

I don't mind it as well, but its my girl's car. I finally got her to let me mod it a bit, so I went with the lights first, HID's and LED's (everywhere). She says she hates the fast blink, but I suppose I could do the resistors thing. I just didn't want to go that route.

I looked into this replacement electronic flasher from V-LEDs as well but decided against it for 2 reasons. 1) It makes a clicking sound and 2) It only works for 4 sockets, so if you replace all 6 (in pre-2011 headlight assemblies there are 4 front turn signal bulbs) like I want to do, it wouldn't work. Your other option to avoid hyperblinking is of course resistors, or perhaps doing a DIY mod where you alter your existing electronic flasher: http://vleds.wordpress.com/2010/12/0...k-with-v-leds/

Looks like I'll be doing the resistors. Thanks for the info brociouz!
