LED Resistor question

Hello all,

I have installed LED turn signals in the front and rear on my 16 FiST. I have a 6ohm resistor on the rears and no resistor up front. Still get a little hyperblink. Should I put a 6ohm on the fronts or drop all 4 corners to 3 ohm? Thanks in advance!

Did you do the mirror as well? Add the 6 at the front and you should be fine.

No, I didn't get the mirrors yet.

I had to do resistors at all 4 corners even with LEDs in the mirrors.

What ohm resistor did you use?

Can anyone specify which wires are used for the resistor connections. I've searched and come up empty.

You can tap into the wiring harness that goes into the headlight assembly.
The wiring is:

Left turn - Blu-grn stripe
ground wires are black-yl stripe

Right turn - Yel-vt stripe
ground black-gy stripe

You just have to remember to mount the resisters to something, they get very hot.
