LED Lights

[D3adch1ld]

Did the DD engine bay kit, came out nice, but had to modify the pre-assembled harness due to a short on the insulator at the connection point. A bit disappointed on yet another boo boo from DD. For those interested contact me for a run down of the installation.

I decided to put in the non damaged bulb just to see what it looks like and how it functions and these are the results. Sorry for the iPhone pics

I don't mind the double clicking when the turn signals are on, but personally I don't like the color. The temperature doesn't match with the LED fog lights or the HID headlights. Just looks a little off to me. DD, any chance you guys will make an all amber LED for the front signals?

I would like the temperature to match as well, kinda why I am holding off on this.

Yeah, the HID's and LED fogs have a slight blueish hue, while still giving off a crisp white light. The DD bulb is just a really bright white. It's not off by much, but enough that it messes with my OCD. (I'm not really OCD, just trying to paint a picture here lol)

Did you use the Sto N Sho holder to mount your front tag to the side like that? Looks good, I was afraid it might look a lil import-ish, but nope.

Yeah, it's funny, because for the PP kit, they want you to mounted off set at the center of the car, I tried it and looked like I just put it on crooked. So I decided to off set it and really made it look nicer. I'm also going to mount the $10 platic license plate holder to the bracket to stabilize the plate, the bracket leaves to much of the plate exposed to getting bent and ugly soon.

I received my switchback kit today in the mail. After looking at the connectors on both lights I can see why it would pop out of the connector. If you look closely at the pictures you will see one of the bulbs connectors are extra long and could Push itself out of the socket. The other bulb looks fine and might work. My car isn't here yet so I cannot test this out.

Yea, for me 1 stayed in OK and the other just flopped out.

Temporary Solution

I found a temporary solution to Diode Dynamics switchback LEDs. The small LED fits fine, however the larger dual colored one did not fit properly and fell inside the housing. Luckly I was able to find a strong enough magnet to pull it out. After inspecting the OEM bulb and the one by DD I realized the metal wires are too long on the DD LEDs. If you cut it a tiny bit of the wire just up to the part where its supposed to clamp on it will fit, but its not entirely secure. Use the OEM bulb wire a a guide for length. While I was able to install both properly without it falling off, I am not sure if it will hold. Since my car is a Summer car and I won't be driving it anytime soon I will not know if it will hold. So Diode Dynamics when you do come out with the revised version, I would like to exchange the larger bulbs, for my peace of mind.

I hated the orange OEM look, my original plan was to tint the overall housing, but this is a way better solution. I really like the overall look, and I would recommend it to anyone, once they've fixed the fitment problem.

We have already redesigned the base of the bulb to ensure proper fitment in the 2015 Mustang. The new shipment is expected to arrive within the next few weeks.

Feel free to give us a call for more information: (314) 205-3033

We will replace any set of switchbacks that have experienced fitment issues in the 2015 Mustang

Thank you,

Nick, do you think when those come in you will offer a full interior/exterior kit?

We have replacement LEDs available for every location on the 2015, but it's unlikely we will offer a "complete" vehicle kit with every bulb. They are all listed on the site and very easy to find, but feel free to give us a call if you need assistance: (314) 205-3033

Will Diode Dynamics make replacement yellow fog LEDs?

Possibly!

We are developing a lot of new products specifically for the 2015 Mustang

Just called, the switchbacks will be ready in about 3 to 4 weeks. I am definitely getting mine then, along with the LED reverse light.
