Have you tried modding the indicating unit itself?

did you use t-taps? did you wire it up correctly? are you having problems with the front ones too?

NEED MORE INFO.

well lets not get ahead of ourselves here. if they were wired up correctly then you would not have hyperflashing.

check out this thread, it's easy to follow.

make sure that when using the t-taps, that you press them FULLY onto the wire you are splicing. use pliers and squeeze each one pretty good to ensure a good connection.

i just did this mod on a buddy's 07 TL-S last weekend and everything went smooth. btw the same concept for the front signals applies to the rear signals as well, except the rears are a little easier because there is only ONE positive and ONE negative wire coming off of each bulb connection.

^you need 4 resistors total. 2 for the front turn signals and 2 for the rear. you need a resistor for each LED bulb you're using.

I like to solder on the resistors because T taps dont give a perfect connection sometimes
