LCI Taillight retrofit was easy. But the relay is killing me.

updated Pre-LCI '08 M3 e93 taillights to LCI lights with the adapter dongles. 10 minute job. Looks great.

I get the bulb failure warning due to the LED vs bulb. Not a problem for me and I can code it out at some point.

But the relay now runs at such a high rate it is annoying. Is it resistance or impedance that is too low? Can I just add an inline resistor on ground, or should I swap the relay for a more appropriate one?

I got my hands on another retrofit adapter kit. It just has three incandescent light bulbs in a box LOL.
