Flasher unit.

#7: "The CC ones don't need a new flasher unit"

Interesting. How do they manage that? I imagine it must use a ballast resistor which wastes enough power as heat to fool the flasher unit into working properly. To my mind that defeats one of the advantages of LED lights, i.e. low power usage.

If you're stuck at the side of the motorway with a low-capacity Lithium Ion battery and your hazards on, you might certainly wish they'd just provided a new flasher unit with the lights, rather than using a ballast resistor.

#18 Quite, but it's one slight disadvantage that would only be apparent in an extremely unlikely situation, versus several other advantages that are there whenever you use the car. 

I would think most modifications have some downside, however small or insignificant it might be but, as ever, we have a choice.
