Wiring LED turn signal lights
« on: June 05, 2017, 08:49:59 PM »
As I can't find a replacement RS turn signal lens I'm thinking about wiring in some LED turn signals in there place. I've looked through some post but couldn't find the information I was looking for.  Do I need a resistor? Or can I wire them direct to the old wiring ?  Any help or ideas would be great.  I'd like to keep the RS mirrors as I like the look. 
Thx

If you have the turn signal relay with the through hole components instead of the SMD components, the cut this trace:
