Led turn signals

[09blmonster]

I want to install led turn signals but people say I need a resistor so it doesn't blink fast is there another way?

I'm not familiar with switching to LED signals cause my truck had them on when I bought it. Here is what I got when I Googled it though. This module seems easy and may be an option.

Super Bright LED's

Im sorry but there isnt. I have all types of led relays for turn signals but they have not made that one yet. I have sent out resistors to other guys. Its not that difficult but I know how u feel.

Other than a resistor to change the load of the LED, I guess you could buy a new set of headlights off Ebay that have a resistor built in. LOL.

It's not hard to install a load resistor inline of your signals. Cut/splice/crimp or solder/shrink tube. Done.

Here you go....no splicing or dicing. Works PERFECTLY!!!!! http://www.vleds.com/toyota-electronic-4-led-flasher-blinker-turn-signal-fix.html

yeah i have them installed on my honda and unless you like the super fast blinking you have to add a relay or resistor.

Do you only need one of these?^^

DO NOT GET THIS BOX.

Guys I do this for you all. That is not the box for your turn signals and u would shockingly not believe how big it really is. Miami_X can testify to this. I used his truck for R&D for this relay. The above relay does not fit.

U can also line tap as well. Beats doin all of the above.

If u like PM me and i will work out a deal for you. With the LEDs and resistors

I just don't like the line taps yet for some reason. Maybe they will get me sometime. I'm old school and like to visually see and know my tap connection is good. I have yet to try the ones that have a spade terminal for the accessory you are adding. Maybe they work better?

 

[Whitebeauty]

I like those too. I feel better with those cuz it visually shows me theres a good connection.

This fits in the stock location and is the same size as the stock one....I have had it installed for 2 plus years with no issues whatsoever. Just informing all of my personal experience. As for me if I can do a mod myself I will do it. This was a simple mod and completely fixes the issue without touching any wires. Simply locate the stock flasher under the dash and replace with this one. I am not in to cutting into my electrical system as I would be sure to F something up, this alleviates all of the guesswork.

Only one is needed....see the link in my original post.

You both are correct.

If your Tacoma has factory DTRLs you will have the big blue one. If you don't, you will have the smaller one, and thus can use the smaller gray box.

Ok, well I don't own my X any more, but I'm gonna disclose a useful piece of information that after trial and error made a huge discovery....I had LED lights thru-out my truck and what I did to correct the fast flash, was change the flasher under the dash to Lexus IS350 flasher which fit right where the factory X flasher went.The IS350 has LED taillights and such.It corrected it and i think i spent 10 bucks or so.If you pull up the factory flasher for your X and then pull up the flasher for the IS they are identical just have a slightly different part #.

Plz post a pic of this....I have these available. I will admit though that if so i most certainly was not aware of this.

 

[blacktacoma]

does anyone have the part # for the IS350 flasher

 

[ICEMAN]

http://www.vleds.com/toyota-electronic-4-led-flasher-blinker-turn-signal-fix.html is the one I have but if you are set on an IS350 one then ....

no that will do thanks
