Fitted LED bulbs to rear lights

Some cars usually have indicators flash rapidly when LEDs are installed - the system thinks that a light is out. So these resistors stop it from happening, but I'm sure new LEDs have this installed in bulbs surely.

Mine didn't, but would make the job alot easier if they did!

Top job though!

Did your indicators flash rapidly only when you changed to LED ones? I am wanting to do fog lights, but not sure if the system will think the lights are out (not working).

Sadly it wasn't just the indicators. The brake lights caused the ABS warning light to come on so had to put resistors on those as well

The Glanza didn't have rear fogs so those ones are connected into a seperate switch/circuit on the dash

Erm, I can't really remember anymore especially if the links are broken, but at the time all the information was there for all to have. Annoying that they've changed them.
