    Got some green leds for the daytime running lights, blows out the hazard fuse, and doesn't work do I need a special fuse to put in the place that says led drl?

    Yes the LEDs for the blinkers require a resistor to funcition properly.

    The LEDs bulbs for the Daytime Run lights/Signal lights need (I believe 3157K) not the 3157. The leds work differently then standard filament bulbs. The resistors are only needed to stop the hyper flash due to the very low power draw. I blew a few fuses before I figured it out. I would just buy the resistors (2 per side) and hook them up yourself. The ones fully assembled, at least when I bought them from Amazon, were wired backwards and blew some more fuses. I can post a pick of my setup later.
