The Switchback/Indicating USR sidemarkers....
 
USR send me some sidemarkers to test fit and must I say, am impressed....we TESTed out 2 units and these are the ones which will go in production :thumbsup:

They are ~6000K white
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:

SharksBreath 05-21-2012 03:04 PM

nice. :rockstar:

so the fronts are WHITE but they blink AMBER when you apply the turn signal?

and the rears are RED but they blink RED when you apply the turn signal?

if so, price?

Aaron: The rears run white as well and blink Red when you apply the signal....USR already has a blinking sidemarker....these are both switchbacks :thumbsup:

Simon, will come in here with the pricing and order info....

SharksBreath 05-21-2012 03:09 PM

oh...i don't like everything white. i'd rather the fronts be white and the rears be red.

fronts to blink amber and rears to blink red.

possibility? :wish:

swoosh 05-21-2012 03:11 PM

^^^ Simon can answer to that bro....if he can let you mix and match or just order the set of 4 or a set of 2....all depends on him :thumbsup:

my work here is limited to posting pix/vids of the TEST product....

guitarplayer16 05-21-2012 03:13 PM

Wow, cool stuff!

Best part is they blink in sync lol

ebelp 05-21-2012 03:24 PM

Thanks Anil. Please post some night vids! As long as they are truly 6k white, I'm in.

swoosh 05-21-2012 03:26 PM

^^^ Your welcome John....I will be taking some nighttime vids later tonight....

Undying Dreams 05-21-2012 03:27 PM

Hmm, I might be interested in these. Will he be making them in smoked and without the white? I'd rather just have indicating-smoked side markers.

And about hyper flashing, what if you use the hazards? Then all of them would try to indicate resulting in more than .24ohms? Right?

swoosh 05-21-2012 03:29 PM

^^^ :nod:

but these DO NOT induce hyperblinking....and if you have done the .24OHM fix, these these WILL NOT hyperblink...

Undying Dreams 05-21-2012 03:49 PM

Sounds good then. When will they be available?

swoosh 05-21-2012 05:26 PM

^^^ well today is 21st May....so lets see, from TODAY !!!

Undying Dreams 05-21-2012 05:50 PM

Nighttime video for John....and you folks....

I think my wifey's iphone suffers from ADHD as it cant focus :tomato:


ebelp 05-23-2012 09:45 AM

Thanks Anil! Hopefully it's just the white balance of the iPhone, but they still look like a 5k white, rather than 6k. I know it's hard to capture the actual color in a photograph, but if you say it's definitely a cooler white than the previous versions, I'll believe you. :tongue:

swoosh 05-23-2012 09:47 AM

^^^ LOL yeah they are definitely cooler than the previous version....I am gonna be meeting up with some folks who have real cameras to take some shots LOL.....

i need to buy a good camera.... :sad:

ebelp 05-23-2012 10:03 AM

Decent point-and-shoot cameras are like $150 these days at Best Buy!

btw, hurry up and reply to my FB message. :tongue:

swoosh 05-23-2012 10:19 AM

^^^ ROFL completely forgot about that....will do it over lunch....manager gets all :rant: when he see's me on FB LOL....he thinks Azine is an Oracle forum :rofl:

guitarplayer16 05-23-2012 11:52 AM

Get a DSLR lol
All the cool guys are getting one.

Undying Dreams 05-23-2012 11:57 AM

They are great cameras too have but not worth the money if you're not going to use it to it's full potential. If you're just gonna leave it on auto and take pics of family events or whatever then it's not worth all the money. A nice point and shoot will do just fine.

I agree....and i doubt i will ever be able to use it to its full potential....

SharksBreath 05-23-2012 01:17 PM

^anil, any possibility we can send in our own side markers to get modified? i really want to keep my OEM type-s smoked markers if i can.

Undying Dreams 05-23-2012 01:17 PM

My 10MP Canon DSLR takes up to 10 MB shots, and that's as a JPG. Imagine a RAW file.

no sir....i think its either this or cutting your sidemarker and DIY....

i know Andy has a very well done DIY....

beside, IMO this looks cleaner on couple color cars, NBP being one of them....

Will get some pix over the week :thumbsup:

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 :thumbsup:

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).

https://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/yhst-61082267057515_2213_0

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:
