Tail as Turn Module w/ DTBL LED Tails


Recommended Posts

I was looking at the Diode Dynamics site and found their Tail as Turn modules to be pretty cool and cheap. This turns any LED tail light into the turn signal as well, which would then free up stock turn signal light location. You could then add a white LED light there, splice it into the reverse light and double the area and output of the reverse lights. I think this would look great with the DTBL LED tails since the lenses are white for turn signals as well.

Just wanted to see what you all thought of this? I wasn't sure what it would look like with the "C" shaped running light led's on and have the brake light flashing as the turn signal though. I think this mod looks great on cars that don't have this type of running led light and use the same brake led's for the turn, but unsure of how the combo would look with the DTBL tails.

 

At $10 I might just go for it to see what it would look like. I would use the quick splice connectors instead of cutting the wires as they do just in case I don't like the look.

Thinking about this a little more, I don't know if typical factory style LED tails that have the turn signal built in use LED's with dual intensities (probably not correct terminology but I'm no electrical genius). If they do then this kit won't work with the DTBL tails since the actual LED's used for the brake is separate from the running light LED's and therefore they probably only have one intensity?
