Looks great. Sounds kind of complicated.

Not at all. It's simply a PnP relay swap.

My lights still flash when I lock and unlock the car.

Nice, I like the LED look for the turn signals.

Are the LED part #'s the same for front and rear amber blinkers?

Both front and rear turn signals use 7440 bulbs.

The rears were easy enough, any tips on doing the front turn signal bulbs?

It appears that the bulb inserts from the bottom in to the headlight housing.

The front bumper has to come off to change the front turn signal bulbs....I tried to reach through the fender liner when doing mine but the bumper support was in the way .

Thanks for the info, looks like I won't be changing the fronts out any time soon.

Edit: Forgot to add that the rear LED's are a nice improvement. My reverse LED's weren't working, I had to pull them and expand the wire on the LED base a bit for them to make good contact.

They light up now, very bright over stock. I still have an image of a very bright white LED in my line of vision.

I will be doing the front signals soon. I have to remove the front bumper to install laser shifters anyway, I'd like to do everything at once. The rear signals, reverse & bumper lights I did a few months ago.

I got my front turn signal LED bulbs in the other day and I will be taking off the front bumper tomorrow to install them. I will post a video after I get them installed.

seems like if you get this one: http://store.ijdmtoy.com/No-Hyper-Fl...s-p/20-001.htm the led flasher is built in and you don't need a separate module to prevent hyper blinking?
