RE: [doc] LEDs

[Mike Sumner <mikebmw316@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

That sounds more hopeful than I had anticipated.
   
  I'll have to look into it in my Haynes manual to see if it'll tell me where the flasher unit is located.

as soon as you get the correct type :) (but may be a
little bit more tricky if your car has those new
'computerised' bulb checking system)

You will probably need a new flasher unit for the
indicator lights, as the filament flashers works with
a specific range of current... and the LED bulbs
simply draws too little, ending up flashing million
times a second. But changing the flasher relay is an
easy job too, so don't worry!
