    They also have an eBay site.

    Also, there are other SMD, CREE, and regular LED bulbs on eBay that are also great. Some are bad. Hah.

    You would need a new blinker relay. It cost me about 30 bucks at Baxter Auto parts.

    Thanks. My entire truck is LED.

    A lot of stuff.
    I have option #1, if you go this way they don't come with the Top Bulb.. go figure.. use the old ones before you install.
