I sho do!

Trico EP-27 flasher relay ... Autozone for $13 or so.

To access it, reach up and in through the sorta gap between the black floor heater duct and the rest of the dash, from the driver side. Reach in there and you'll feel a little lid that you have to press on the sides to remove. Then, the taller relay is the one to replace... pull it out, plug the new one in the same way, and replace the little lid.

Helps to have the hazard lights going so you can hear/feel the relay clicking until you get your hands on it. Also, try and maintain its orientation as you pull it out, so you can reach the new one in lined up the same way, and won't have to fiddle with lining it up to plug it in.

Might help if you remove the black duct if your arms are too big to reach in there... I think there are just a couple screws holding it in place.

Let's hear some details on your new lights!

thanks alot ill get it today and instal it...all they are is replament bulb's that are LED..my lights in the front are clear lens and they look prety good to me IMO..you can see it in my galery without the LED'S..ill post pictures later with the LED'S..i got red ones in the rear under a red lens..just makes it more red and brighter.i need that up hear in the winters so that people behind me see me a little better when the snow is wirling around behind me...i got the little 194 for my corner lights and clearence lights and got blue ones for my A piller gauge..i like the blue there cause you can read the gauge better without being blinded and my dash is all blue any ways...they use very little juice to run them.thats why i need to change the flasher..if the flasher dont work i can get resisters for each blinker.thanks for your help...makes things easer for me..

That was wise to get the red LEDs as opposed to whites. I asked the owner of www.autolumination.com about that a month or so ago and he said the white LEDs behind red taillights would look sorta orange, whereas the red would just make for a brighter and more "redder" red.

Be sure and post back to let us know the new flasher works as it should.

And thanks for the kudos, guys... you too, kbeefy.

just got done putting them in..i ended up getting resisters for them..they had one you put in each blinker/brake wire and the ground and cures the problem..it did the trick.and they work great..13 bucks a piece was worth it..5 minute job and i put them right behind each tail light and wire tied them in place..
