Front's blink: Amber-OFF-Amber-OFF
Rear's blink: Red-OFF-Red-OFF
Running: Lights run WHITE

When you lock/unlock your car, they blink WHITE

If you already have all LED indicators in all 4 corners and have either the load resistor or the resistor mod, these will NOT hyperflash....

Here is a small video of the little devils in Action:

Will get some pix over the week
We would like to thank SWOOSH for all his time involved of getting this product developed and become available with test fitment and wiring installation. Thank you

USR is now officially released this product. No Error SwitchBack Smoke Side Marker lights for 04-08 Acura TL (please note Type-S's rear plug is different than the base models, so for type-S, modification on the connector will be needed).



There are 2 stages.
Stage 1 = White LED for both FRONT and REAR
while
Stage 2 = Amber LED for FRONT and Red LED for REAR.

There are people who does not want REAR to be WHITE LED, worry not, use tap splice to simply tap the extra positive wire on the back of the new switchback side marker to tap into the original side marker's positive wire from the car, then you will have it light up RED all the time.

Here are the link to purchase the item on our site:

http://www.uniquestyleracing.com/20actlsm4pis.html

And for the special intro price which will end on Mid-June, use the coupon code "swooshsb" to get the discounted price. Thanks everyone!

Best Regards,

USR

Ok this one confused me
"If you already have all LED indicators in all 4 corners and have either the load resistor or the resistor mod, these will NOT hyperflash...." or will they work but will hyper flash?

read it slowly....

so if you have LED's in all 4 corners---- which means you are running indicators which are LED's upfront and in the back

and have either the load resistor or the resistor mod-----which means you added load resistor to correct the hyperblink....

these will not hyperflash------so these will not hyperflash.....

so again if you have taken corrective measures already, these will not hyperflash

btw this might be a better deal....the reason i say so is, if you mix and match you might not get to use the coupon code....after the code you get the sidemarkers for 100 bucks (which is 30% off), if you mix and match he might not allow you to use the "swooshsb" coupon code....

Still a little confusing. So, if you have the resistors or not, it won't hyperflash, correct?

mix and match? i was hoping i could still purchase what he is selling here, but have them wired up a particular way which would have red rears for running lights that would blink red when i applied the signal.

otherwise i'll just keep my oem markers and forget it about.

If you have LED indicators all around and resistor's installed already, these will not hyperblink....

if you current setup hyperblinks, these will hyperblink as well....

Aaron, he already has sidemarkers which run red and blink red....there will be no rewiring required....thats what i meant by mix and match....

PRODUCTS HE OFFERS (sidemarker related)

1> Running Amber front and Red rear
2> Running White front and White Rear
3> Running Amber front and blinking Amber front....Running Red rear and blinking Red rear
4> Running white front and blinking Amber front....Running White rear and blinking Red rear....

we are doing this for product type 4 and you are looking for product type 3 for the rear....

hence mix and match....

In case anyone needs it,

Our contact information. By email: info@uniquestyleracing.com. By phone: 909 477-3115 (between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Pacific Time) Unique Style Racing .

Ask for Simon, he's a busy dude, but he's normally taken the call when I've called.

And to simplify...these will do whatever your blinkers do now...they mimick the blinker but have no adverse load effect whatsoever (from what I understand). So if you have LED indicators and hyperblinking, these will do the same...if you have oem bulbs with no hyperblinking, these won't either. if you have led indicators WITH resistors and no hyperblinking, these won't either.

Cool but very tacky I think. ESP if you have a 07+ LOL. You are going to blink like a semi truck. If you have a 04-06, the front sidemarker would look cool, but otherwise IMO its rice.

I agree...if you have an 07 or above...get these for the nice cool white to match your switchbacks but don't wire up the blinkers. For us older dudes...for safety purposes I'm all over this I want it to be SUPER obvious I'm signalling from all angles!

Wish he sold just the front 2 side markers in white NON BLINKING/SWITCHBACK...

I know he sells them in a set of 4 (front and rear) but I just want the front 2 in white and I don't want them to blink or switchback... Just want them to match my turn signals.

Gentleman,

As mentioned earlier "There are people who does not want REAR to be WHITE LED, worry not, use tap splice to simply tap the extra positive wire on the back of the new switchback side marker to tap into the original side marker's positive wire from the car, then you will have it light up RED all the time."

So it means that you CAN have front blinking and rear stays RED all the time no blinking.

ps. The introductory reduced price coupon will expire in ONE WEEK!!

Regards,

USR

What I'm trying to ask is;

Can you sell the front 2 side markers in white (non-switchback style) only?

I plan on keeping my OEM STOCK rear side markers and I am only interested in purchasing the front 2 USR style sidemarkers in white (non-switchback style)

I bring this up because I notice you sell the FRONT and REAR as a complete set. However, I don't need or want rear side markers. I want to KEEP my stock ones, I just want to replace my front 2 for the USR white ones...

I said it twice to clarify exactly what I'm asking because I know what I said earlier seemed confusing. I'm only interested in buying 2 FRONT USR side markers ALONE. Are the front 2 sidemarkers available for purchase? Or do I have to buy front and rear just to get the front 2?

If you want the front one to be lit amber and blink with the turn signals in sync, how would you be able to do it? I have seen some custom work but they do not blink in sync.
