I didn't touch the turn signals. One, they hyper-flash. Two, they're only rarely used so the power draw is insignificant.

Even Honda and Toyota use incandescent turn signals beside their LED tail/brake lights.
But instant-on LED turn signals look cooooool!

I've had similar experience with superbrightleds.com, and also V-LEDs out of Bellingham, WA.
