Hey guys, just installed my VLED V2 Switchback LED 6K Turn Signals. Got it in this afternoon. I initially ordered the VLED V1 Switchback where when you activate the turn signal, it switches between amber and white. I thought they were kind of ricey in my opinion.

Anyways, install was pretty straight forward. You have to take off the bumper and take out the headlight. I ordered LED Resistors just in case. At first, when I first installed it, it was hyper-blinking but after about 10 minutes, I guess the car's computer recognized it and it went back to normal. Our Car's ECU is really smart!

Anyways here are some videos and some pictures. I apologize but these are just Point and shoot pictures and videos. I had finals all week and still do, so this was sort of a break from all the studying. Graduating next week! w00t!

Enjoy







And now onto the videos...

 

niceee, i like how it switches between orange and white. it seems like it lags a sec or two to change from orange back to white though, or is that jsut how it works haha

and congratz on almost graduating! im graduating next month....for high shcool LOL

 

Wait, did you install the resistors? When you say you think the computer adjusted for the LEDs after 10 minutes, is that without any resistors?

 

Are your fogs HID?
And what about your tail lights? what did you use for them. Photos?

 

Yea there's like an one second lag when it switches back to white, its just how the LED is, no biggie. Thanks man, yeah more school for me.

I didn't install the resistors, I bought them just in case. And yes, the computer basically adjusted for the LEDs without any resistors.

Yes my Fogs are 3K HIDs. Tail lights are stock. My reverse bulbs are just Nokya Artic White bulbs. I haven't changed the back to LEDs yet.

 

you cleared your headlights right?
how would the white look with the orange reflector still in place

 

Very nice. And congrats on your studies. What are you going to do next?

 

How do people clear the headlights????!!!

Sorry, I love that look.

 

^It's a DIY project by Kowloon. Here's the thread for it if you wished to try it out.

buy a heat gun, metal spatulas, silicone glue from honda/acura dealer

get another friend to help you pry it SLOWLY

if you dont use a heat gun, then you can bake it for 8-10 minutes to melt the glue.

 

Damn I like them! Schweet!

 

These same bulbs come in all amber, as in, amber all the time and not white?

You planning on doing LEDs in the taillights?

 

looks good man!

how much and where do you buy these?

 

yup i cleared my headlights, i think it would just look less amber if you had the orange reflector in place.

Well Im graduating with a BS in Political Science. Kinda BS (no pun intended). I thought of working for the State Department but over the past year, I decided to finish up my degree and after graduation, I'm actually going for a Bachelors in Nursing. heh guess I need to get myself a Ducati lol.

Thanks!

Under the website, its under Amber LEDs but Its not amber all the time. When I have my head lights on, they are white until I turn on my turn signals, then it switches to amber.

Yup eventually considering a LED tail light swap.

 

Thanks! I got them for $79.99 from v-leds.com. The LED bulb code for our turn signals fall under 1157 bulbs. They have a smaller one half the size for $54.99.

 

Thanks.

Wow, that sounds like way too much work, and I suck at working on cars.

 

what's your plans for doing the tail lights? my friend put some LED tail signals and it's blinding as hell

 

As of right now, nothing really planned. I was thinking of these

but I think they are kinda ricey IMO, plus eyeballing it, it doesn't look like it can fit.

probably considering these too, looks more normal and refined

I wonder how this looks on a OEM non cleared headlight.

 

ive seen some russian CU2's with LED rings on their taillights. where can you find those?

 

Damn that looks great. Switchbacks FTW!

 

They have all amber ones that don't switch, I just looked.

Wonder how well these would work:

oh i thought you were talking about mine. but yeah no need for resistors.

 

Nice!

 

thanks!

 

look awsome mate! just a quick question how did you wire them to your low beams? and indicators?

 

that is great - can you do that to an 06?

 

Thanks! well when you turn on your head lights, your parking lights automatically turn on. All I did was just replaced the OEM bulbs with LED ones. Indicators are the same as the parking lights

I'm not sure if you can because isn't the turn signal separate from the parking lights. Like the turn signals is one the circles? You can do the JDM headlights though

 

Very nice! The bulb is a bit too bright for me though. I like how the switchback works but i'll probably end up purchasing the $54.99 (60 LED) one. The light reflected from the headlamp is almost as bright as your lowbeams since you have no defuser there in the corner

 

nice

 

Looks good

 

the 1 second delay from signal to parking light reminds of the l.e.d's on the new Audi's. my ex's did the same thing.

 

where did you get this and how much they run for..

 

got them fro vleds, bought a pair for $79.99

 

Looks good... too bad its diff colour to the HID (headlight) and fogs

 

no worries, getting my 6K head light bulbs this week. I like my 3K fogs

 

cool!

 

very nice... hey, how did you remove that orange part plastic? when you install the vled im kind of noob here...

 

im sorry.. i got it... im just not reading the threads.....

 

hey kaloown. u said theres a smaller one for 54 bucks. whats the difference between the smaller one and the one u got? they both swtich back right? just the smaller one isnt as bright?

if i were to do this (probably plan to clear headlights in xmas, then get these later on) do u recommend the smaller ones or the one u got? i got 6k headlights/fogs and nokya artic white drl, if that makes any difference in matching
