Default LED Signal Upgrade

Looking to upgrade my front signals and rear signal/brake lights with LEDs on my '13 Wide Glide. I've seen some on here say that I'll need a load equalizer to slow down that goofy fast blinking for the difference in amperage draw but the Custom Dynamics website says that the 11-13 Dynas don't need them. Just wanna clarify before placing my order... Thanks!

I have CD LEDs, and did not need an equalizer. Everything works fine.

Other guys have reported a fast blink indicator on the dash, but the signals blink normally. I didn't have that problem.

Great customer support, too.

I got the HD smoked LED turn signals front & rear on my '13 FXDF. I can confirm that my dash signal indicator blinks fast while my signals blink at a normal rate. I dont know why this is. Should I care?

I have Radiantz all around and everything blinks normally including dash indicators. I believe some have said if your bike runs on a canbus you not need a equalizer.

Doesn't hurt to call CD & double-check...my touring bike needed equalizer, but maybe Dyna's don't...??

its my understanding that the 12+ doesnt need the equalizer. i do like the "seizure inducer" setting on their run turn stop module.
