    type 2 56 smt led switchbacks, highout put single 180* smt 194 bulbs from v-leds.com

    parking lights they illuminate 6k but when signal is on they flash off/amber, not 6k/amber like type 1 switchbacks....i like this better because its more distinct when you are signaling. there is a 1 sec delay b4 the 6k pops back on when the signal quits but its no biggie.

    parking lights on (halos only)



    all on with 6k LB's




    signal on (very hard to capture since i have rapid blinker till i go to radio shack =] ) haha

    sure as hell don't. measure the resistance of the switchback and compare to the stock bulb. then you know the difference is the resistor you need.

    Get a flasher module. Autolumination sells it. Or you can mod your stock flasher modle per back in blacks page. This will solve your hyperflash.

    Boost, go to the auto parts store and buy a ep28 flasher and cut off the center pin and that will eliminate the hyper flash.

    i got a ep28 tridon flasher with no bulb out indicator it was a 3 pin flasher and it plugged right in, i actually just took out the stock flasher and removed the circuit board and replaced it with the circuit board from this relay that way i could still clip it in and its incased......worked great.....i think im gonna rewire the 194 side marker to not flash because i got type 2 so that it flashed amber....and since it alternates between the sidemarker and signal i still get the amber white flash.....or put it an amber sidemarker and wire it only to flash and no running light....i can decide....
