I believe I know the answer to this question already, but thought I better check. I am upgrading to clear corners and LEDs. I have all the pieces and parts I need. If I install the hyperflash harness first and take a break before I actually lift the front and do the rest, that won't be a problem right? In other words, if I find time to install the harness tonight and then drive the car tomorrow before I install the LEDs, I am not going to hurt anything right?

I think what you're getting at is if you can run non-LED lights with the hyperflash harness. The answer is yes. Using an electronic flasher (like the hyperflash harness) is universal and will always have the same flashing rate, as opposed to a thermal flasher (like the stock one) in which the flashing rate depends on how much power the lights draw.

Vehicles which tow were among the first to start using electronic flashers, because the flashing rate will stay the same whether or not you have the trailer lights added to the circuit.

Thanks Paul, I thought I would be okay but I know these cars can be temperamental.
