LED Switchback for the EU Mustang - Yes it's real! (and almost plug'n'play)

[John577]

To make a cleaner connection as to CUT the OEM connector, you can remove the OEM connector, put special electrician tape around it and then leave it behind the bumper.

After that, for a clean installation, you can buy the OEM connector and rewire it completely to a +12v (like papinist said, to the window wipers motor). Same connection for the switchbacks.

Link to the OEM connector (part number - 3U2Z-14S411-RPC) : http://www.tascaparts.com/oe-ford/3u2z14s411rpc

I bought this connector to connect my sidemarkers and from what I saw, it's exactly the same for the front parking light.

So, you can keep one straight white line for DRL and for parking :cheers:

Ok so the standard wiring (like mine) is what you need

No problem

But from what I read and from what I remember, you will install the boards from DD, right ?

So, I don't call that DRL but "parking light" boards ...

Hi Mate, sorry to ask you a simple and silly question. I am in the first stage of replacing all the bulbs to LED in my car. So Far, i have done, Front AU version DRLs, Fog Lights, switchback without switchback, all interior kit.
I am not able to do the front side markers, next to switchbacks. I can take the Grey plug out but not sure how to take the bulb out. I tried turning it anticlockwise, but it won't buzz.
I see you have already replaced it. is there a trick to it. does it still come out by rotating it anticlockwise?
any help will be appreciated.
Cheers

 

[papinist]

yeah you only have to rotate it (not sure about the direction but I bet anticlockwise). They are hard to rotate doing it through the fender well - for me it was easy since I did it with the bumper removed
