Default RX350 Changing front turn signals

Hello, I made a diy video on how to change our front turn signals a few months ago and would like to share it here for those who never done it before. Video could use some improvements but its a straight forward video.

I was converting my turn signals to Philips LEDs so I decided to make a diy video. There is a sneak peak of my side mirror puddle lights that I changed out to Philips bright white led. Might make a diy video for that later.


cheers

James, thanks for the video and the effort behind it.

In relation to the hyper-flashing, I have taken a different route that I would consider safer (no heat/burning-no drilling), easier (no tools needed) and it's done in less than 5 minutes.
There is a relay made for Lexus/Toyota that can replace the original one and do more than one function:
One, kills the hyper flashing
Two, gives you multiple flashing patterns when you turn the hazard signal one
Three, add a feature called "tap and turn" when you change lanes. It can be adjusted from 3 to 6 turns upon activation
and Four, it turns on the puddle lights and front and rear parking lights when you lock or unlock your vehicle.

The resistors are a bit scary to me since they must be drilled to the vehicle body and also must be touching the metal body for heat dissipation.

Here's what I'm talking about:
