To those with switchback LED turn signals....

[HaileyR]

How was the install? Did you take off the fascia?

I am completely lost as soon as you put a bunch of wires in front of me, but I pretty much get it, I just have to tap the load resistor into the ground and the wire for the turn signal... but which ones are those? lol Last time I looked, there were 3, all different colors I believe.

Also, really my only important question, where did you put the load resistor? Do you have a pic you can show me? It says they get really hot, so only mount it on metal. I just want to know the best place to put it, I don't want to leave it just hanging.

Any other info you want to share is appreciated.

TIA

Resistors don't get too hot that they will melt everything especially the ones you have that look like gold bars. I would just wrap then in electrical tape to be lazy but it should be fine. You normally plug one end to positive and the other to ground. Tap into the black wire for ground and both positive wires are brown and numbered. Just tap into one of the brown wires. Turn on the signal and if it doesn't work properly then plug it in to the other wire. You won't blow anything.

Ok, those are the ones I bought, and the electrical tape was what I was thinking I'd do. Maybe tape it to that metal beam below the light, at least I think it's metal. lol

I don't need to disconnect the battery to do this, do I? I don't really see why I have to..

Thanks! You have blue switchbacks right? You ever get any attention from cops? I bought red... lol

Only light up front allowed is white/amber. Only flashing light allowed up front is amber. Rear flashing lights can only be red/amber. Rear lights can only be red.

[HaileyR]

I know this. lol At least they don't flash red. We'll see how it goes, my mods so far haven't attracted LEO attention.

where do i get me some of this kind of LED lights from as i would like to this kind of mods to my 300C.

EBay has then for cheap. Vled is a good seller.

Pic of the led white inner led signals. Matches 6000k pretty well.

Reviving this thread to see if anyone knows how to fix this...

I received my bulbs and they both work, kind of. My problem is instead of the bulb lighting red as running lights and flashing amber when the turn signals are applied, they're running as amber and flashing as red.

Is there some kind of mix up here? Did I make a mistake? lol It's really annoying.

[rickdogg]

Maybe try flipping the bulb around? Were you successful with installing the resistors?

[HaileyR]

Yeah I did that lol I'm going to try again, maybe the splices on the resistors weren't connecting or something.

I could see it look cool on the Charger.
Any photos, vids of switchbacks on Magnums?
I'm afraid that it would not look that good on a Magnum.

Got mine installed in 15 minutes. You can choose either use wire-clap or solder the wire at the connector end. The 2nd option will give it a cleaner look.

Mount the load resistors with metal zipties to place you like. Hide it away if you want a clean look.

Here is mine setup. I have the 60-60 switchback from autolumination. Had them for 8 months now and they are good as new.

Why was the camera so shaky? Do you have what Tom Hanks had in Saving Private Ryan?
