Switchbacks

[Rob_Stylez]

What 'new' switchbacks is everyone using? I ordered a set from LMR but unfortunately they do not fit correctly (7443's) I received a second set but Im still having the same issues.

I know other members mentioned the amazon bulbs but what are the fitments like? I dont want to pay alot for these and I think the Diodes are still pricey.

Anyone used switchbacks from superbrightleds.com? Ive bought some LED bulbs from them before and Ive never had any issues with their bulbs but they werent switchbacks.

Any info would be appreciated - thanks!

Diode Dynamics is the "go to" for me. Have used their products in multiple cars. Yes, they are priceier than ebay crap, but they stand by their product plus the bulbs are bright as fck

I'm using these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YDN4NQW?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s01

Fitment is great. Still get the galloping turn signal indicator in-cabin, unless you want to buy the inline resistor to have the normal indication. Brightness is perfect and matches the 6k cool white side markers that I got from DD (via amazon). Amber turn signal is nice and bright, too. Zero complaints from me for the past 3,000 miles.

Does anyone have pictures of these installed in operation?

Thank you!

Diode dynamics has a video of them on their site.

My Diode Dynamics switchbacks have been trouble free since June 2015.

I'm sure it's referenced somewhere but how much of a hassle is it to install these? Bumper Removal?

You're using these 7443's that OP is using (same size that he said don't fit well), but they are fitting well in your car?

No bumper removal required. Turn your steering wheel and go through the fender liner. Maybe 10 minutes a side.

Perfect, thank you.

Still trying to get to know the car. I only have 1,700 miles and it's stored for Winter so I haven't had a lot of time to mess with it.

Indeed. They fit very snuggly. Removed and reinstalled just to make sure they'd remain tight, too. Also, to verify they'd work in either installed position.

Perfect, thank you.

I haven't done a whole lot, but if you go through my build thread in my signature and have any questions about anything I have done, just ask! Happy to help whenever I can.
