Ive heard good things about VLEDs. I never ordered from them because most LEDs on my car are OEM. (Phillips, Osram, etc)

So if I get these LED turn signals from VLEDs the resistors are built in? Nothing I have to cut and splice into? Correct??

Well they are not completely 'built in' they are in line resistors that you'd just mount somewhere near the headlights. No need to cut or splice though

Yeah I watched a video on it. They plug into the harness, then to the control box, then to bulb. They are out of stock until Jan... But these look great and have Philips chips in them. Should do well.

I also read resistors are not really built into the bulb, as the heat would from it would damage the bulb...

They sure do if you buy as a package (else it wouldn't work at all)... Switchbacks are currently on backorder though.
I looked at them last night, your correct.. I only opened the box once and that was awhile ago
