LED Blinker Fast Flash Solution

This is what I did to stop the "fast flash" associated with LED lights for the blinker / turn signal. They wouldn't let me post this in the "How-To" forum but I wanted people to be aware of this option as an alternative to getting load resistors.

if you switch over to all LEDs, you would still need a load resistor. This works only when you have an incandesent and LEDs, so good solution to your situation, but it doesnt do away with load resistors

I am not sure. Maybe it has to be a written How-To and not a video.

It's a 2005 2.2L. I've had it since new.

What risks do I run by not having marker lights? I've noticed that a few people have painted them black so I didn't think it would be a big deal.
