    Do you have load resistors or do you just not care about the fast blinking?

    Yeah, his did the fast blink too. He's going to take care of it and I'd like to get some finished pics of the setup now since all my pics are half done ones. Thanks for posting up Mike, your truck looks mean as ever..

    This brings up a question... Is there laws on what color turn signals must be? Cause I lost mine with my "valence chop mod" and had to come up with something quick. All O'Reilly had was blue LED bars so those are my turn signals now. Between the blue and the hyper blinking LEDs I'm afraid I could get in trouble for impersonating a cop...

    any kind of blue light on a car is an automatic pull over...

    they are supposed to be the same color as OEM... you could get away with white, but definitely not red or blue...

    i know someone who got pulled over for having blue city lights...

    +1... any flashing lights that are blue, red, or yellow are a no no for civis.
