LED Turn Signals

[CB_Toxicxx]

Found these on EBAY! Has anybody tried them out? Were they good or bad? Think I might get a set http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-x-Smoke-M...ps=63&clkid=7867282794021374281#ht_2549wt_816

Those look real good. Get them and let us all know what you think.

Those are cool looking.

I bought em & they're on the way to my house now
It will be awhile before a performance report on them because I'm in the process of rebuilding her. I'm also not sure if I'll need a load equalizers for them or not[confused]

All LED lights hyper flash if you just wire them in directly.

really?

these mount PERFECTLY on the firebolt and nothing was required just put it on the original blinker wires and it blinks just fine. no hyper flash.

 

[FIDOSOL]

That just means the additional required component is either prewired with the light, or they have made it an integral part of the light. I stand by my previous assertion as that is not just an LED light.

In the event that the leds don't work because of the different resistance, make sure you check this thread out. I performed this simple modification after installing leds all around and it saved me from buying a new flasher relay.

flasher relay for led mod

and yea, those things look cool!

@ jeffb, I've read about that mod a few times and if I can find a picture of 1 that is the same as mine w/ it already done then I'll do it, but I don't want to go by trial & error. I love how they bend and move w/out breaking. My GF broke off the back right before we ever got out the driveway lol

I used plasric housed led signals for a while the qualtiy was not good but they worked. I switched to Oberon about 7 months ago and they are worth the extra money. The LED lights are much brighter and the Metal housing is solid. And just put a LED blinker relay that is under the wind screen to get the blinking timing to work right. I got one from the auto part store for cheap it was slod as a trailer blinker module but works good.

heres a ling to the Oberon signals on ebay.

Only problem I could with these lights is if your putting them on a lightning, the rear hole is smaller than the front so if the shaft is too large it wont fit. That was the problem i had with my eBay led blinkers. As far as the resistance problem and the blinkers flashing fast, all I did was change the flasher to a 36 led flasher. About $12 at parts stores.

 

[CB_Toxicxx]

@ mattdamobster, if that's the case I'll just drill it out a little bit

 

[07Bolt_SOvitt]

Spazz. What'd you have to do to wire the LEDs in? Because the signal connectors are different.
