[QUOTE="Reptar, post: 350196, member: 1883"] What color were your rear bulbs? Mine were white/amber switchbacks. So when they were installed the difference from white to amber didn't have nearly as much of a contrast from parking lights to brakes as the stock setup. I want white LEDs in the rear so they go from white to bright white so the taillights go from red to bright red, and not from red to orangy red. The flashers is interesting, I guess the system has enough resistance with rear stock bulbs and front LEDs to not go into hyperflash mode. But with LEDs front and rear its not enough and goes into hyperflash. You may only need to install a pair of the resistors, maybe not all 6. I'd do 2 at a time and see when it goes back to normal. I wouldn't leave it with the hyperflash, you already have the parts, and it's not only annoying to the driver, to the people in front or behind you it looks kind of stupid IMO with the really fast flashing bulbs. Either looks like they were too cheap to do it the right way and install the resistors, or it looks like they have a blown bulb, because on older vehicles a blown bulb would cause it to hyperflash. You'll have to post a pic with the running lights on, curious how it looks with the 2 less amber lights up front and a pair of white ones now. As for the front reflector lights, I pulled my headlights to install them. It's 3 bolts (2 on the top, 1 behind the rubber guard). THere's also a screw/pushpin that holds the rubber to the headlight, I left it attached, just unbolted the light, pulled straight forward, pivoted the light around, swapped the bulb, and stuck the assembly back.
