1975 Porsche Carrera LED upgrades

[sennaducati]

Hello Group, I am new to the site. I am looking to upgrade all the bulbs in the Carrera to LED. I have done so but when using signals etc they are inconsistent. I am ware of the very nice high end LED headlights but wondering what is required to make these work when purchasing LED bulb replacements? Thank you for any input. Is there a resistor requires somewhere?

If you want to replace the turn signal bulbs with LED, a LED Flasher relay is needed. For the rest of the external lights it would be just plug and play.

Thank you very much for the reply. When I search they show relays but not the round plug style that is in the car. I apologize if this sounds dumb on my end, if you can direct to a part number or supplier as all I am finding is the flat style plug in relays? Thank you

The flasher relay is not one of the round relays, it's installed behind the dash. Here is a link to instructions on how to install the LEDs and flasher relay. This should clarify it.
