Comments about 3 OHM 50W 4 BULB LED LOAD EQUALIZER RESISTORS TURN SIGNAL BLINKER FIX:
i took this product to a chevrolet dealer they insalled it and tested it and it kept fast flashing so the took them out and said u waisted your money they said your turn signal is controlled by thee bcm and we cant alter that

damn GM dealers

they bought the wrong resistors, the were supposed to buy the 6ohm 2 bulb reisistors.

^^ The links are in here. I'm using the 6ohm 2 bulb for my front turn signals but like Cobalt08ls said, he's using the 3ohm 4 bulb.

Install takes about 5 minutes. Just a couple crimps.

I went ahead and left them in last night and i DID manage to get a TINY amount of glow from the White LED's at one point but it was only because it was in my hand. i DO have hyperblinker at the current time as well...

another question, will my 6ohm 50watt resistors that i have work for that whole side of the car or do i need one for the front and one for the rear on each side?

i had the $75 ones from v-leds.com and loved em, just not the price tag, i like the type 2 soo much better. i used to have them on my ion, i might buy the one's for 33 bucks.
