Are the two circles in the tail lights two different sizes? 120mm and 130mm?

Awesome man. Have you thought that the computer is not reading as much of a drop as it should from the relay as it does from a normal bulb, as to the reason it blinks faster. And the pulse modulation is to fast from the blinkers going faster for the relays to let the LEDs turn off. You should just try to put the proper size resistor in the coil side of the relay circuit to slow the blinking down.

Definitely one of the better looking DIY lights I've seen on this site

Doing slightly the same mod on mine.
The difference is that the tail light will look like the OEM when lights are off.
Ordered 120mm red circle for lights, and 100mm amber for turn signal (120mm are to big to be integrated with the original lens).

Great job!
