the load resistors are pretty big, and they build up heat, I wouldnt want them too close to the LEDS since they may reduce "bulb" life or burn up the housing....

The "clicker" is also the relay i believe, so to find it follow the clicking sound the blinkers "make" when they are on. behind the dash makes sense....

I may be wrong about the relay... there are two relay boxes behind the battery. There are two relay boxes and one fuse box, so don't confuse the fuse box for a relay box.

Behind the battery? As in closer to the firewall or away from it?

The only relay box i've seen next to the battery has almost no relayss int (bah!)

So i gave up on the LED turn signals (too much of a p.i.t.a for reduced light output)

But i did replace all the other bulbs in the car with white LEDs

Here's a pic of the parking light & fog lights!

I'll try to get pics of the others @ some point

LOL, notice how the 4300K HIDs look yellow compared to the 6000 K LEDs

Nice work replacing the bulbs.... the fog/driving lights seemed underpowered already, does the LED now have even less than OEM? They also seem quite blue in the picture, is that accurate or is that from the camera do you think? I am curious because i was thinking of LED'ing these lights as well, but wanted to keep them very white and well powered. Even if I did figure that out, I am not sure I'd pull the trigger since most people would prolly think I have my high beams on if they match the HID's that well. So might go the yellow HID route like some have done here.....

Yeah, the LED fogs have 64 pieces of SMD leds per bulb, but they do seem to give off less light, just the pretty color (They do fine @ night, however)

They're actually 6000K white as adversitsed - not blue. Don't judge by the pics, they were taken by a cell-hpone camera.

I'd LEDs the lights just like i did, and get 6000K HIDs to match the color

i have an 07 g35 coupe and i put led lights in the front headlight turn signals without changing the flasher ... i used an resistor 50 watts, 8 ohms and 12 volts. I used 3 watts leds ... they are very bright !! if you want more info contact me !

I put the resistors in parallel with the led light, the resistor also has an cooler so it doesn't get hot just warm to the touch when you let it run for 5 minutes.

There you go some pics but in real life it is more bright than in the pic cuz of the camera.

this is the resistor i used, mine is an 8 ohm load not 1 ohm like in this pic
