Did you get load resistors? LED's wont work in turns without them.

Yep, gonna need a new flasher unit. Sorry I don't have a part number for you, but I'm sure you can do a little bit of research.

It's just a matter of pulling the cover off of the fuse panel, pulling out your old one and plugging in the new LED compatible one.
