Default Flasher Relay location Oultander XLS 2010

Hi everybody !....
ok, 2 weeks ago, a flasher bulb stop working, I have to replace it...
Went to the store (Canadiantire) and no more 7440A (A for Amber)...
So I decide to replace those bulb by LED bulb.... I read a lot about LEDS.... and to avoid the fast flashing due to less power consumtion, I need to install some resistor (I don't like this way).... or replace the relay by a LED compatible relay... I can't find any doc on that, It's like there is no relay for the flasher....
(I noticed than if I do not buckle my seat belt and I use the flashers, I do not hear the flasher (Tic Tac) but I hear the sound of the safety belt warning (Ding ding) are there really a relay?

Thanks for your expertise... ;-)

No relay, that's the feature of a dashboard.

You'll need a ballast resistors or maybe different ETACS flasher bulbs power setting - there was some options, maybe of them will work with your LEDs.

Thanks a lot Vadimus, that confirms what I thought.... :-(
I don't want to mess up the wires and have some electrical parts that can move all around the engine....

Do you think I can install those "CAN bus" one ?
