Yes,
When I purchased my LED kit it came with the flasher relay. I was able to change out all the bulbs. But, I had Bruno help me find and change out the flasher relay. I think it was pretty easy to find near the fuse box if I remember correctly.
Once that was changed the flasher led lights blinked normally.
