Default LED Switchback turn signals

What is the best inexpensive route to add LED Switchback (DRL/front turn signal) bulbs to a 2003 Fatboy?

I've been researching this a bit and see that resistors are needed to avoid hyperflash, but some report that the resistors get very hot and are not easy to conceal. So I started looking into a signal stabilizer/load equalizer to solve the hyperflash issue, but I wrote to a company that makes the pricier ones and they say that the signal stabilizer will only work for standard LEDs and will NOT work for Switchback or CREE LEDs.

Anyway, just wanting to update my old bike with switchbacks and wondering if anyone has gone this route and how they handled it. Any input would be appreciated.

I put those on my 02 Heritage in place of the driving lights and man I like them so far. I wish they made the same thing for the back, red outside ring of running lights with red turn turn signals.
