Ok I want to get led blinkers for the front and rear of my car, but what is this piece I need so when they blink they blink normal and not really fast?

If your talking about led blinkers to replace the stock turning signals (only) thats alright as long as you buy the same set ...that way they won't blink super fast. However i wouldnt suggest putting them in for the brake lights as it will A. not let you put the cruise on . B. you'll end up gettting a CEL ... take it from me been there done that... oh and if your looking to buy 1157 and or 1156 ... your best bet is ebay for price.... iv been searching every where and have yet to find 1157 in my area

So i dont need the resistor if I buy the same ones for the front and rear blinkers? Is this true?

i would use that ebay kit if you were planning to keep your stock 1157 but if you change the front and the back wth the same resistance you shouldn't have to buy that kit.

Ilan can you confirm this?

So if I get the LED blinkers for the front and the rear and if they are the same brand of bulb, I wont have the QUICK blinking problem? But if I only get LEDS for just the front or the rear and keep stock blinkers in the front or the rear I will have the QUICK blinking problem :confused:
