help me with led bulbs please

I have a set of led bulbs for the tail lights. I have the hyper flash. I looked in the owners manual/fuse box to find the relay. Which one is it? I only have 4 normal black relays i thought were for the lights. If someone could tell me the number of the relay that would be awsome!!

You may need to put a load resistor in the line to each bulb which will elininate the hyper flashing.

I changed out my bulbs with LED's and installed load resistors, couple bucks at auto zone. Make sure you get a good connection and wrap the whole thing in electrical tape. I learned that the hard way when my connection came lose twice and the result was hyper flash.
