Default Turn Signal Modules for L.E.D.'s

Ok, so I want to run LED's in all my brakes, turn signals, etc. and I know if you put them in your turn signals, they blink like a bulb is out. I know you can wire in a resistor, but I hate that idea. I have seen "NO MIN. LOAD" flasher modules just for LED's. So what I want to know, is what modules do the Silverado's use (sig truck), and where are they located??

They should have direct plug in replacements like factory.

There is no "direct replacement" for our trucks. The "flasher" module is huge, has about 10 wires going in/out of it, and is designed to deal with a trailer system. I started working on an electronic version of a "flasher" a year ago but finally got fed up and just put load resistors in place. Been working fine since. 100% of my bulbs are LEDs.

you can buy a single load resistor . . and put one in each corner

but they do make "LED" Load resistor flasher relays
