    Can anybody point me to a good thread for installing LED blinkers and a computerized blinker module, and what module to use? Thanks!

    Why spend that much money? You will loose your self cancelling function. My opion it is probaly not worth the extra work, bulb will need replaced at all 4 turn signals, and the cluster , the flasher unit ( might be ok but not sure), ( xj4ever might have all of parts )

    That is what they are for. People seeing what you're doing so they don't hit you is a good thing.

    Instead of going LED you might consider swapping to later Yamaha blinkers from a Seca II or other model.

    A bit nicer to look at, and they still have a lot of surface area for visibility.
