Default LED running lights

my 2003 anniversary car the yellow running lights had melted the lenses and popped

went with LED lights to run cooler and replaced the lenses, looks great, but now the flashers run fast.

went with a plug in flasher to fix that, doesn't work at all. Getting a bit frustrated. Best to go back stock?

All the turn signals work but flash at a faster rate, will that pass? any ideas on flasher mod products that work?

Just order the Hyper Flash harness from Sharp Light or Vette Lights and be done with it. Also, did you get resistors with your LED markers? If NO, you should get them as well.

I just installed LEDs in my 2003, adding the hyper flash harness under the dash fixed my issues.

Could you explain more about this "plug in flasher"....
Last week I installed new corner lights from Vette Lights along with a hyper flash harness, so I am all good. I have a pair of load resistors that came with the Vette Lights that I am not going to use. If the OP wants them, they are yours for the cost of shipping...$10.20 for USPS Priority Mail.
