The HID kits are 100% plug and play, so its mostly self-explanatory. However, we will be happy to provide instructions for you with whichever product you order. We can also tell you the easiest/best way to remove anything on your vehicle prior to install to help make this an easy and smooth experience.

Here is the resistor installation diagram.

I see that you have a diagram for the rear turn signal LED's but I didn't see any pricing/description. How much are these?

And regarding the resistor; do we need to cut wires for this? The warning seems to warn against mounting the resistor in the harness. Any other options to get normal blinking speed?

The rear turn signal L.E.D.'s are $12 each. I thought those were in the original post, i guess they got left out somehow. we will update it. Thank you for noticing that.

For the resistor wiring, no wires need to be cut. the resistors come with "splice crimps" for easy reversible installation. The resistor housing has holes for mounting them on the vehicle body. The reason behind the warning of not mounting them on plastic is because they do run warm since power is transferring through them and different thicknesses and types of plastic may melt, so in order to make sure that doesn't happen we recommend not mounting them on plastic.

As far as other options to obtain a "normal" blinking speed, there are replacement flasher relays that we are trying to obtain to supply to you all. More info on those will be available one we have them in hand.

Sorry for souding like a total newbie but after all the work i put into cars, i have never switched a bulb on one. I wanted to replace the DRL, it seems your LED is like a regular bulb? So when i bolt this in there the DRL will be brighter and white, how about the high beam, or this had nothing to do with the high beam?

These has nothing to do with the high beams and once you install them they don't funcation with the high beams. Then again why do you need high beams unless you going to get someone's attention

The DRL is a plug and play replacement. The light from the 9005 LED's is brighter and also a very nice white. Because the DRL also functions as the hi beam, you will only have the LED for hi beams. The alternative to this is replacing the DRL with an HID kit, however that isn't as cost-effective as the 9005's.

All PM's replied!

Great info. Let us know if you get some relays in. I'd much prefer those over crimp resistors. Then I'll be in for the blinkers front/back and reverse/plate/trunk lights.

I want the DRL but make sure it at about 6000k color to match my current lowbeam with 6000k hid kit.
