@37, something with your hook up is incorrect. Can you take some pics? Being able to see actual connections will be helpful.
Verify resistors are an open by measuring their resistance with an ohm meter.

i am using the same value resistors you are. resistor goes from the turn signal wire (before the tail-as-turn DIY kit) and then to ground wire.

actually $10 shipped if you PM DD for a free shipping code, assuming you live in the US.
For those who may be wondering, the OEM LED array is plenty bright for daytime use. (Hence why they are OEM brake lights as well)
Great time to pickup the kit, we are running a 4th of July sale: "JULY4" for 10% off

Nick, I have interest in this product (for a sedan) but would like to retain the stock turn signal bulb. That is, have both the led ring and stock bulb flash when a turn or hazard request is initiated. Appears for the coupe the resistors come prewired. Is it possible to have a variation of this module where the stock bulb is used rather than resistors. Should just be a matter of changing wiring slightly on the oe connectors. In fact, cost should be less as resistors are not needed then.

^^Not so much the convenience factor. I just don't want to cut into factory wiring unless absolutely necessary. I suppose if I go that route, all connections will be soldered and sealed with heatshrink tubing.
that's what i did instead of using the crimp connectors that came with the kit. plenty of wire and room to work with.
