I have the switchback on the passenger side that flickered the other night and now is out. I'll check it out when I get a chance. Will put factory yellow back in socket to be sure it isnt a socket issue first.
99% of the time it's a pin alignment issue from installation. Again, we will make sure you are taken care of, but the metal pins on the bulb have to be making contact with the tabs in the base of the socket to function correctly.

10-4. I will mess with it this weekend when I get a chance and make sure everything is lined up.

Thanks!

These things sure do seem to have a ton of issues. I'm waiting for a solid alternative before I jump in

Same issue here, purchased from LP. Passenger bulb worked for about 4 days and is now out. I put the factory bulb back in just to be sure there wasn't another issue, but it worked just fine. I know sh!t happens sometimes, but kinda upsetting that I spent 80 bucks and having issues after a few days.

Yeah, mine worked good for about a week or so. I have not had a chance to look at it yet, or swap stock bulb back in to check. Will as soon as I can, and get in touch with DD if the bulb is bad.

I am on my second set due to the passenger side flickering. Well after a few days of having them on, my passenger side one is flickering once again. I'm fed up and put back in the stock bulbs. I will be contacting for a refund. I really like the bulbs but I cannot afford to be driving and looking like an idiot with a flickering bulb.

It's odd how everyone is having issues with the passenger side bulb....

I have pulled the bulb out checked pin alignment and even used dielectric grease to prevent moisture inside the connector. My passenger bulb is now starting to flicker again after receiving the new replacement 2 weeks ago.

It's possible that the bulb may have been damaged during shipping or installation. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience, but please contact us and we will make sure you are taken care of

I am not understanding why all of the issues seem to be on the passenger side. Is the connector setup differently than the drivers side?

UPDATE: Nick spent some time with me today and has proven that he and his company are good, customer focused professionals and are making this 100% correct. I can't wait until the new batch comes. Good stuff!
