Default LED question............

O.K. I want to put LED's in my turn signals. What flasher relay do I need to replace. I saw it somewhere in here before, but don't remember. Can I change all turn signals, brake lamps, etc... to LED's ??? Any info would be appreciated!!

Joe

I tried to replace my lamps in my old car with leds, it was a GM car also, but as soon as I stepped on the brakes to watch them in action, about three of my fuses popped. You can give it a try but have some spare fuses, or ask a professional. That was enough for me to decide not to change them.

If you change both flashers to electronic flashers, LEDs will work.
They're located below the steering column, about a foot in either direction.
The electronic flasher you need is a Triton EL12 and you can find them at AutoZone or PepBoys for $8 each.
