How's she goin' eh?
That's annoying as hell. Especially with all the advancements of auto switches now and how bright these clusters can be. Especially in winter, all you are is a moving pile of snow. The best is when they turn on their brights in the daytime. That ****'s blinding.
I'm sure the stats will argue this but I feel that the majority have adjusted to DRL's. We have become immune to them. I tend to notice cars at dusk and dawn running around with orange markers more than the DRL's guys.

The switchbacks are actually a LED light with 2 colors white and amber not sure how they work but they do. finally have mine working the right way and it was just a simple change now i have white for parking lights and amber for turn signals that flash amber-off-amber-off then back to white for parking lights.i use JDM LED's mostly seem to have a better selection . and there prices are not outragous

Pretty bright, here is video of my truck with them (pre load resistor). Added load resistors later so they blink at a normal rate now.

Yes, I've had the same bulbs for 3 years now. Got them on Amazon. Here's a link https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

does it seem to hyperflash or is it just me that sees them flashing faster?

Buy these and follow install instructions. https://www.superbrightleds.com/more...g-fix/190/831/
Some people have been able to fix hyper flash via forscan but that's another subject. I use the resistors linked above. 1 for each bulb and be sure to attach them to the sheet metal so they can dissipate the heat they generate. DO NOT use those scotch lock connectors they come with, solder them or risk mind numbing problems.

It's not as bad as it sounds, just toss the supplied connectors for something more tangible, soldering being the best option, next best option is to use

i have allready installed the resisters . found the problem to be wrong LED switchbacks i needed the 3030 ck switchbacks and not the standard 3157 ones . switched to the 3030ck and problem solved. i woukd like to thank everyone for their input .
