take out your front bulbs.... ehehehe

really? u'll have to change the blinker module. cause they flash at a certain speed depending on a certain load. (just a capacitor built for a certain current...)

the only way to do it is either change the relay (flasher)
or you take the relay apart and then u solder a bigger resisitor

Mike had a at the end he was teasing.

Take the polarity on from your reverse lights and switch them. I did and it worked but they are back to normal now.

And yes its a rice mod
