OK, I installed my pair of spoke's front turn signal LED boards. Very cool design, fits snugly into the signal lens cover. Went ahead and grounded the signal indicators in the tach to the tach's ground. All works except...

... still get the hyperflashing. Spoke, need your help man! I was sure this was going to solve the issue. Lights look great, but I'm getting hyperflash.

Jason,

Did you change the flasher to EP26 (4 pin) or EP36 (3 pin) from your FLAPS? I used EP26 in my 930 to cure the hyperflashing when I replaced the rear turnsignals with LEDs. Either EP26 or EP36 will work; I would use EP36 moving forward. The 4th pin is used to drive other things like the dash indicators and such.

Hi Spoke,

Just replaced what I had to EP36 - everything works!

Pretty sure I have the LEDs in upside down however - the amber section is the thin line right? What might be good is an orientation mark on the inside top corner of each light...or something.

Jason,

EP36 is your friend.

The line is for us to note where the white/amber LEDs go. You can see the white LEDs by looking straight into them (without power). The white LEDs look yellow on the inside.

The white section can be on the top or bottom, your choice. The important thing with the LEDs is that they point forward. If you put them in backwards (backwards in the lens, that is) they will point to the side of the car and not be very useful for folks directly in front of you.
