I have no clue what mine are. Got em from eBay a bit ago. Don't forget that they will make your blinkers blink rapidly.

Mine blink at the normal speed but they don't seem very bright in the daylight.

Load resistors is a band aid fix. You need a new flasher. EP27 from autozone has worked for those that have down this.

Some people with lesser wiring skills have ended up shorting out thier turn signals using the load resistors.

I have seen that first hand.
