Default LED blinkers

For those of you that have installed LED blinkers. You should also have installed a load resistor kit on each blinker.

Where might have you mounted these and what where any complications that you ran into?

Thanks

I am a huge fan of leds, but just not in exterior lighting. I tried them in the tails and was pretty disappointed in the results. The taillights and markers are made with reflectors designed to be used with regular bulbs, which cast light in almost 360 degrees. LED's cast a very narrow beam angle, 30 degrees max, so from outside, all you see is a very small intense circle of light.
