Forgive my ignorance here but what do you mean by that?
The LEDs are a side-emitting self adhesive led strip from Auto-Zone. No brackets just peel and stick. I cut the plug ends off the OE wires and soldered them on.
My flash rate is normal because I did the electronic flasher conversion detailed in the "electrical" forum. I'm on my phone or I'd include a link. The conversion is MUCH simpler on the Vaquero because of separate indicator bulbs.
The run/turn/brake module is an add on to convert the existing turn signals to multi purposed running lights, turn signals, and brake lights.
