this is the first time ive used switch backs...but these were off ebay.

needed sockets to rewire the all the rear lights and make these work







back up lights
stock left, led right(they dont look that blue in person) i would have preferred bright white-no blue at all...but you get what you pay for on ebay lol at least they are still brighter



turn signals
stock left, led right




finished product. all leds in the rear: in trunk(resued from cobalt), lic-plate lights(reused from cobalt map mirror lights), 4 running lights(oem only ran the bottom two), 5 brake light(oem only used the bottom two and high mount 3rd), turn/back up light(shared- turn signal cancels out back up light)



new running light setup



new brake light setup...way more visible

i looked at those, but they were so pricy for what i'd be using them for...also not much room.

 

ya i know what u mean but i just pulled the trigger. im pretty much going all out on the retros ive been wanting forever so why not. I couldn't make myself do the switchbacks though

 

i wouldnt have either. not my thing, amber is for turns, red brakes, white head/reverse lights...no need for more white lights up front

 

i mean it would have been nice but not 50 bucks more nice.

 

for the price there worth the $

 

Here's what they look like in daylight, with fully blacked out housing, so nothing to reflect off of. They do the job just fine on their own. Also demonstrating the remote start alarm a little. love that thing. Sorry for the double post. Thought it belongs here too.

 

Why, why would you bump this old ass thread?

 

Mostly, because I started it. And it's directly related to the video. And I believe that people that already get notifications for it might be the most interested. ...

I don't believe in starting new threads for every update on something that's been done to the car and is already covered.

Does that answer your question?

 

P.S. Why would you re-bump it? If you're not interested, why not just keep scrolling?

 

are you using the built in resistors?

 

They look nice

 

They are bright as **** thats for sure

 

Have you guys seen the NEW v3 tritons?! They looks soo sick! 130 bucks and they need ballasts lmao. For TURN SIGNALS!

Lol thats what i was looking at. Then i said they are nice but im not paying that

 

lol they look pretty much the same as the old ones just different conrollers. crazy they went from metal to plastic. Guess they got rid of the resistor for hyper flash

 

It looks like you have to get those separately now. The setup I bought about a year ago had built in resistors and was still $130.

 

right... hey do u have the switchbacks or just the regular amber? are you using the built in resistor?

 

Switchbacks and yes I'm using the built in resistor.

 

hmm. I just have the ambers, using the built in resistor but when the parking light is on they hyper flash again. It only doesn't hyper flash during the day.

 

It says they are aluminum construction.

I want so bad but wow 165 with all the options id need. : good thing i have three montbs till my car needs to be back on the road

 

I want some lol but really dont feel like paying that much. Maybe later
