I got colored led's from Velocityleds (on ebay). They're multiple led bulbs w/ multiple directions (so it doesn't just look like one point)...they're supposed to be a direct replacement for the factory bulbs. I still haven't installed them....but I'll probably post a thread and pics when I get them installed.

As far as I know, LEDs won't blink unless you have a relay module hooked up to make them blink. They might have something by now that allows them to blink, but I've always heard you need a seperate module to make them blink.

Looks like the seller's name is velocityleds_1.

You need an electronic blinker module that can detect the small voltage changes for the LED blinker to work. It's a cheap part that you can get from most auto parts stores.

You can go to AutoZone (or another local auto parts store) and get a Trident EL-12 to replace the stock flasher unit.

Our cars have two flashers, one for the left/right signals and one for the hazards. You probably need to replace the hazard flasher too but I don't know the replacement electronic flasher for that one. (I haven't replaced either of mine yet....I dont have any LEDs yet.)
