I just ordered some and was wandering the same thing. Have you figured this out yet? do they just plug in and do their magic or is a load resister required?

So yes you do. I ordered the resistor with mine instead of finding out later and tested it and there was a hyper blink. The installation was pretty easy. Mounted the resistor to a medal part of the car since it gets hot and worked perfectly. I ended up getting the projector style which looks pretty good but doesnt give of light from the reflector obviously. Its one way directional. But still like em. Not sure if i have a pic or not
