Well, one of my 7443 Profile Peak leds switchbacks turned into a strobe light.......remote started my truck because of the snow last night and my wife asks, "why is that light doing that on your truck?" So I looked outside and sure enough, its strobing from dim to bright white. WTF, not even 2 months use on them. Will be requesting a refund from The Retrofit Source. Installing the chrome coated bulbs later today, how irritating.

That sucks I didn't know any better and bought DD switchbacks but they were listed for a 2017 not an 18. After the taillight fiasco I went though trying to put 2017s in a 2018 I'm going to down right now and make sure they fit in the 2018 SE housings. If they don't fit I might have a set of DD switchbacks for sale. I don't feel right about sending back something I screwed up on.

Well silver lining. Put regular bulbs back in, amber in the 194 socket up high and the chrome coated 7443 I had. Now, global windows works perfectly. Before with the LED bulbs, I had to be within 10 feet of the truck for it to work. I just tried from inside my house with the front door closed, they worked like a charm. I think I will just stick with the incandescent bulbs for now.

Well guys, add me to the Katzkin club! Just ordered black covers with stone stitching and perforated inserts. I already know, this is going to make me want to order a carpet kit, shhhhhh, don't tell my wife about the carpet......LOL
Should look exactly like these (except with a 10 way power seat :
