Dan,
what type of flasher relay is used in R171? Is it a thermal relay or electronic relay? I'm going to replace turn signal bulbs to LED bulbs and I don't want to put load resister because it produces very high heat. I found electronic flasher relay in eBay, which covers 12 V 0.02-20A, so it doesn't need load resister. Is there any other circuits involved to R171's flasher relay such as bulb failure monitoring circuit, etc. I will try electronic relay, but I'm little but scared about possibility to damage to my car. And where is the flasher relay in R171?
Here is the link to electronic relay in eBay:
