It's really difficult for me to justify that, especially when i've already got a working set.... I know Summers has issues with their mounting (repeatedly) in his 13th gen, but that's a different socket type - he also mentioned the bulbs i have look similar to ones he saw burn up in a 10th gen - but, having said that, so many bulbs look the same these days as the market has worked out the best parts to throw together.
I just checked F150leds website and they don’t offer switchbacks unfortunately. Like you said a lot of manufacturers probably use the same design and materials for the most part.

Got an exciting package in today! I haven't had time to do much with it as I picked it up before coming into work today but I did upload a very basic tune for firmer shifting and adjusted tire size. It does feel like the pedal has more response to it but I will be going with 5Star for some real tunes here shortly. There is a small crack in the screen but I bought it second hand for half the price of a new one so I wasn't worried about it. Every thing functions as it should.

I'm not sure I understand your question.

Oh haha, erm... It's an SCT Livewire TS+ and I think the BDX is something different? I'm still learning about tuners as this is my first one ever but I wanna say maybe the SCT or BDX refers to the software on them? And I believe certain tuners only deal with one or the other but again i'm clueless when it comes to this stuff currently.

EDIT* I think BDX was just a "model" type of SCT's lineup.

Don't mind the mess in my garage or the dirty truck haha. But these are the Axial Sequential smoked turn signals that I finally got around to installing. Spent a lot of my free time the last few weeks getting my bikes in order for the season and also was close to getting a possible layoff due to shortages of materials and whatnot. Being that i'm a robotics technician I was able to thankfully keep working but was put on first shift for a bit so I have been busy to say the least haha. I've got some more "tune up" and "PM" work coming soon!

They look pretty good, are they plug and play?

Yes they are. The glass side ones plug to the factory harness but the cover side ones have a harness that splices between the two all plug and play.

Is the splicing using little crimp connectors that cuts the factory wiring or something?
I'm wary of this kind of thing due to any issues getting the mirror open and/or messing up factory wires - did you have lights on back and front?
