the resistors get very hot, so be careful where/how you mount them.

btw, where are some pics of your setup and newly cleared light

Didn't know they had these. Would they be compatible with regular filament bulbs if you didn't change them all over?

i don't have them on the TL, but i have used them in the past. they connect with either splice connectors or t-taps, very easy. you can either 3m tape them to some metal part of the frame, screw them in or use zipties through the mounting holes. i have alwyas used zip ties as they are the easiest and most reversable.

when i blacked/cleared mine, i went with a chome/amber bulb, instead of led. not a fan of the led look when they are not illuminated,

The bulb you are looking for is chrome in appearance. It doubles as a parking light as well, so it is a dual filament bulb, both light amber.

Look at it this way......every1 behind u will still see your turning signal obviously right......and if your in turning lane, why would u worry.......its not light out all day.....im sure most of the day people can see your led blinkers....if i can see other cars with halogen blinkers during the day, im sure people will see my white blinkers...especially at night --- now for the cops.....there never around all of the time, but if i have to go straight because a cop is coming my way....lol - i will

im just really going for the look....when im not signaling and my head lights are just on, it will be all white and that just looks better to me and im changing my fog lights to HID bulbs
