Looks like a 50/50 split on this one...why not try the rear LED's and see what happens. If they work w/o equalizer then you're good to go. If not, buy and install later. Pretty simple install...wire to battery and signal harness.

OK, guess I will just install and see what happens. Seems about 50/50 whether I need one or not. Didn't know there were that many different electrical systems on a SG.....lol

you have to give the TSM enough time to adjust, when i did mine i turned the blinkers on and let them blink.. they WILL BLINK FAST and then start to slow down, by the time it adjusts the flash may be just a hair faster then what it was.. you may end up with 1 extra flash for every 10-15 flashes i dont remember
