Smoked LED markers
I would like to swap on some smoked side markers. Will the smoked LED markers from ModBargains produce any errors/warnings?

I used the Bimmian LED side markers, I believe those are the same as the LED markers sold on modbargains.com.

They did not cause any error codes but they did strobe on startup for a few seconds.
