Had them for awhile, but seeing all these posts about LED bulbs made me go outside and take some video clips of them in action.

Notice how the brake lights turn on "instantly" just like the 3rd light, same with the turn signals and reverse light.

 

<sigh>, I can't get it... It won't DL, but the others will.. hmm

 

It downloads sooooooo slow.

He turns on his brake lights and backup lights at night.

In my opinion it is difficult to conclude anything about his LEDs.

 

well, if you compare them to regular brake lights, you can tell how the regular bulbs fade-in fade-out when pressed down, i should have left one side with the regular bulb for comparison.
But at least you can see my super-white reverse signals!

Looks cool based on what your video demonstrated but I think you should also let these folks know the downside of buying these cheap LEDs.

I bought those LED stop lights as well, but ended up only testing them before removing them from the car due to safety concerns. When you have your headlights on, these lights are on at almost maximum brightness. When you step on the brakes, it does not get a whole lot brighter to indicate you are stopping. One of the main purposes of having the LED taillights (besides looking cool) is so the driver behind you gets a bright flash of light in his face quickly, alerting him to stop. That was far from the case with these bulbs and in fact, it was the opposite. You can barely tell the brakes were being applied when the headlights were on. Just something to consider. If you did any kind of mod to fix this, Id be interested to hear about it!

As far as the LED turn signal bulbs, dont yours hyperflash when making a right turn or left turn? If not, did you have to install some kind of special regulator? I bought those too and could not live with that, so I removed them. (For sale if anyone wants them )

 

Geez Jun, you've been on a lighting craze lately... but I do know who to consult for my next lighting need (your HID PDF was an excellent instructional source)...

 

Jun,

what are all the bulb size

Brake, Signal, Reverse.




Also where is this HID PDF?

Thanks!

 

7443 for brakes
7440 for turn signals (front and back) and reverse.

Well, they are not AS bright as the stock bulbs, but they are bright enough to tell the difference when the brakes are applied or when they are not.
As for the crazy blinker, i installed the load equalizer and that fixed everything.

 

how do you switch the reverse light out? do you have take off the bumper?


thanks bro

just take the taillights out, stretch your arm down, and reach for the reverse light bulbs.

 

hmmmmmmmmmm

i think i'll try it this weekend.

thanks again

there must be one.
easy though.
1. open trunk.
2. unclip plastic caps with flathead
3. unscrew (3) bolts that hold the tailight
4. pull out.

 

thanks jun

 

hey Jun where would i get a "load eqaulizer" and also whats "hyperflash"?

 

Load equalizer here

Hyperflash is when your turn signals flash really fast, this is mainly due when one of the bulbs is blown, either the front or rear, and is a way to let you know that you need to replace them. When you replace the bulb with an LED bulb, the car thinks the same thing as if the bulb was blown, therefore, you need to install an load equalizer so make the blinkers blink at normal speed.
