$72 for the 2015 Switchback kit also includes a pair of our newly designed HP3 cool white 194-sized bulbs, which represent a significant improvement in reliability over previous SMD models.

Feel free to give us a call if you have any questions about our switchbacks. We've put a great amount of time into making these the best on the market: (314) 205-3033

Thanks,
Nick C.
Where do the HP3 bulbs go? And do you guys now have the resistors in stock as well? And if so, how much are they?

Thanks!

The HP3 is a 194-sized bulb replacement that replacements the factory sidemarker up front.

The plug and play resistors are still in development. We will post an update when they are available

The turn signal ("action" bulb) stays white while acting as the running light, but flashes amber when the turn signal is in use.

The sidemarker bulb is a simple 194 bulb on the far corner of the housing that stays white

Ok, thanks for clearing that up. So they go in the same housing, didn't realize there were two bulbs in there.

I'll be buying these for sure.

Are the galloping ponies still there?

What's the colour temp of the bulbs?
I'd like to match them to the upgraded fog lights I'll buy from DD as they're always on due to DRL laws here in Canada.

They will still "gallop" unless you add resistance to the circuit. The standard 6 ohm 50 watt resistors we offer will do the trick, but they will need to be spliced in.

The 2015 Mustang switchbacks are 6000K (measured). Feel free to send us a PM if you have any questions about color temperature

Another customer waiting for the "galloping" plug and play fix. Kind of redic to get away with that just since this is a mustang.

We aren't trying to "get away" with anything. It just so happens that the 2015+ Mustang makes a galloping sound rather than traditional hyperflashing when any LED bulb replacement is installed in the turn signal location.

For those who don't want to wait for plug-and-play harnesses, we do offer quick-splice resistors to correct it. This is what every other lighting company offers and will recommend. We just feel most of you won't be keen on splicing into your brand-new wiring.

Unfortunately, factory connectors can't simply be purchased through a dealership for our manufacturing needs, so we have to have OEM-quality connectors molded specifically for this application.


@phrenetiK,

We are so excited for the S550 platform that we bought one for product development. I appreciate your support and patience with us :)

Thanks,
Nick C.

Yeah I don't know how I feel about paying $80 for two bulbs, maybe a couple more neat whiskeys later.

Take your time! It'll be worth the wait I'm sure. I'm very very pleased with the interior conversion kit and reverse light I bought from you guys.

The 2015 Mustang Switchback kit includes 4 bulbs total

The HP24 6000K switchbacks themselves are $60/pair

They also come with a 3-year limited warranty
