LED tail light installation HELP???

Don't know if I am in the right section or not...but if anyone knows anything about installing led's please help!!! I want to use some LED's in place of my normal blinkers. The LED's come with two lead wires coming out of the back of the light. How do I wire that up to my stock set up? Any help...pics...anything would be great! Thanks,

are you talking about regular leds? or do you have some of the automotive type replacemt bulbs? if you are talking about regualr leds you cant run them in an automotive application without didoes, capacitors, resistors, etc kinda thing... they wont interact with the stock electrical system correctly.....
