^^^I don't agree with everything in the above video, but take what you can from it and forget the rest

1. damn load resistors. you have no idea how happy i was to find out i could replace the flasher on these cars with an led-compatible flasher...

1a. tap-turn ftw

2. those bulbs do nothing for lining up with the optical centerpoint of the housings.. sure you get a little splash back that kinda works, but there's a reason the reflector is designed around a filament bulb..

3. doesn't look better to me.

This. Also, if you want the look.. you can use chrome-amber bulbs for $6 and skip all the crap. That's what I did.

This company you keep posting videos of seems to do some pretty crappy work, and they are awfully proud of it.
