LED clear corner, clearance strip

So I bought a few more LED bulbs for my 05 G, i bought one for the turn signal, license plate and strip on the headlight. My question is do i have to put a relay or i think its called a load resistor, i bought the load resistor that they sell on vleds, can somebody let me know how to mount that on the turn signals, i have no clue being that they dont come with instructions and on the website it just shows pics and the instructions are vague to me and i dont wanna mess up any wires. Also i heard somebody say that its a bad idea to put an LED bulb in the headlight strip, why? should i just switch the bulb with something else. any info would gladly be appreciated i wanna do all the lights tomorrow morning being that i have to take off the bumper. My G is my first car so im trying to do everything right and not harm it.

the clearance strip and side markers are plug and play. no resistor needed. a resistor is needed in the turn signals to prevent hyper blinking.

He is right you dont need any resistors for the clearance strip or clear corners, i used the vleds 3m-smt 1.5w high power bulb for the corners and the clearance strips, for the turn signals i bought some PIAA bulbs that im gonna try to put on this weekend, im gonna post some pics tonight when i get home because i also did the dome light and trunk.
