Flasher Relay

I saw someone on here that put in an aftermarket flasher relay for LEDs. From the research I've done, it looks like you have to remove the 5 pin flasher (which also handles the auto-cancel) and then use space connectors to connect the aftermarket relay to the 5 pin connector. I've figured out which pins to connect to, but the person I saw looked like they didn't replace the entire relay module.

What has everyone done for LEDs? It'd be nice to keep the auto-cancel if possible but it's not a must. I've already gotten the led relay, just seeing if that's truly the way forward or if I'm missing something.

leds up front or for the rear? i use a flasher relay for my turn signals up front. they are switchback bulbs. white running lights. amber turn lights. then the rear i removed the stock turn signals and slapped on an led integrated brake and turn signal bar. no flasher for that either.

I ended up springing on bulbs with integrated load resistors. Looking good so far. I have switchback up front and regular amber on the rear. No flasher relay required.
