changeing headlights out to projector beams (question)

Getting ready to change headlights out to projector beams,if I use led lights with my turn signals would I have to use resistors with them,I haven't seen to many videos on youtube most were the rear tailights.I'm guessing you do but just want to double check.I tried calling
CA Auto Parts four times but the calls dropped after waiting for a while and listening to there music.
Thank's

2009 was a transition year. Don't use resistors.

If you have a traditional turn signal flasher relay, replace it with a EP27 flasher.

Amazon Amazon

If not, reprogram it with Forscan.

help with projector beam headlights from amazon

Just bought projector headlights but I'm not happy with the halogen light in it I thought they would be led lights,took out for a test drive and I couldn't see 25 feet in front of me,can I throw in led lights and throw out the halogen bulb I mean these are bad or can someone recommend a good projector beam headlight that works.But before I send these back to amazon I want to find out if there is a projector beam head light that works.
Thank's

I would not try to modify them in any way. I doubt you'd have an better results doing it and it will make them impossible to return. Amazon has a good return policy, so send them back. You may even be able to do it at no cost to you for a full refund if they did not meet your expectations based on the description they posted.
