Yes no flasher unit, it's controlled by the GEM.

Yes on older cars there was a flasher unit and on later cars a "Special" relay the power went via this and make the bulb flash, with your current setup the bulb will not flash.

However on modern cars and on these in particular the indicators are controlled by the GEM so am not sure why you are wanting to change that?
