Decided on HIDs, now what?
DBEDGE23 replied to Sparkles's topic in Glass, Lenses, Lighting, Mirrors, Sunroof (BAMR), Wipers
Something to try if your having trouble getting the bulbs in. I used the rubber ring from OEM bulbs (YELLOW) and switched out the orange ones on the 35w DDM bulbs and the DDM bulbs went in 1000% easier. I spent almost 30 mins trying to get the bulbs in with the rubber seal ring (Orange) that came with them and couldn't get the bulbs in. Put the YELLOW rubber seal ring on the DDM bulbs and they went in with ease and with no shadows. -
Ok guys here is something to think about. I ordered the LED Switchbacks from VLEDS the 5K WHITE AMBER DUAL COLOR TYPE 2 CHANGING SWITCHBACK 92 TURN SIGNAL BULBS 3157 3157NA 3357 3457 4157 4057 | 1 PAIR I put 4 of these for the turn signals(Front and Back) without resistors and the Amber part of the LEDs work fine. Now I don't have the switchback working but I don't really want it. Now I could put a couple 6ohm resistors in the front to get the white but for now all amber lights work fine. I have had the 92 M-SMT LEDs before in Ford vehicles and had no hyper flash. So knowing that I decided to give it a try. Everything works perfect! Plug and Play - No hyper flash and no resistors needed to have the ambers work. Hope that helps. Dave

Awesome. Thanks so much for the explanation. I'm surprised that these internet stores don't have a explanation of this. This helps out so much. I will post once I have everything corrected. The VLEDS I have listed in this post are awesome and I hope I can get everything ironed out. Wizard, any tips on where to mount the resistors in the rear?? They do get a little warm. Thanks, DBEDGE23

Can someone help out here? I have the 3ohm resistors because I have 4 LED turn signals. I have tried all kinds of combinations of wiring in these resistors but still have hyper-flash. DAWGS if you read this what wires did you use when you were doing your switchbacks and what side if it makes a difference did you use out of the resistors? Thanks, Dave

Can anyone explain what wires to tap into on the front Turn Signals to get the resistors to work? And any tips for mounting the resistors in the engine compartment(including the mounting plates)? Pictures of your mounted resistors would be helpful. I'm going to be ordering the 3 ohm as I put amber LED bulbs in all 4 turn signals. Here are the Amber LEDs I got from VLEDS: LED AMBER VLEDS - They are super bright but have hyper flash every once and awhile when using the turn signals but if I turn on the hazards there is no hyper flash. Wish I could just change the turn signal relay or module instead of mounting the resistors. Thanks for the help! DBEDGE23 2013 White Edge Sport

Russ, If you look at VLEDS page, you would need to switch to 3ohm resistors to cover all 4 bulbs. But it would be an easy swap if you had the 6ohm in there already. You would only need 1 pair of 3 ohm to cover all 4 bulbs.

+1 to this post. Dan is awesome to work with. I picked up the puddle lights and the DRLs. Everything was perfect and hooked right up. These DRLs are awesome and the workmanship is very nice. I recommend getting them for a unique look!!! Thanks Dan for working with me!!! Pictures never do show bright these things are! To be honest when I got into the car the first time I thought my HIDs came on when I started the car. HA! Pic: Thanks, DBEDGE23

JEA, As you can see from my pictures I took off my bumper. It is possible to do it all at one time. It does not take that long to do. When I put the pieces back through the bumper it was nice to see and make sure the tabs came back all the way through the correct way. Hope that helps. See my pictures below: Thanks, DBEDGE23

Did you order the standard length of 60" x 12" to do the whole grille? http://www.metrorestyling.com/3M-1080-Scotchprint-Gloss-Black-Metallic-Vinyl-p/gloss1080g212.htm Thanks, DBEDGE23
