Thanks for the tip! What do you have now?

actually had to go back to stock as the swithback LEDs seemed to have screwed up my bcm which made my turn signals in the headlights not work. Had to take it to the dealership to have them reset my bcm which they charged me $100 for an hour of diagnostics.

I don't have the switchback function enabled on mine right now. I just wired them so the leds show up amber all the time instead of switching from white to amber. I haven't had any problems doing it that way. Basically I just left the third wire unhooked.


Also, these leds/switchbacks are the Morimoto ones that come with the shrouds they sell. I just ordered a set of Morimoto HALO rings from TRS and plan on switching it up a little. That'll also give me the opportunity to fix the crooked pass side shroud and paint them.

I'm contemplating doing the same or running just the white. Either that or just selling them off to someone.

Got the halos in last night. Only hooked up the amber wire. Very satisfied!
