what happened with the relay? did you need it?

 

Nice video clip. Kudos on leaving the passenger blinker stock for the comparison. You can really see the difference bewteen the two.

So how do you like them, and are they as bright as stock?

Also, echoing GranPrix's query...did you need the relay or was it plug and play?

I had to replace the relay to get rid of the quick flash; I bought one from autolumination.com designed for leds...unfortunately 2 of the prongs were reversed so I was forced to run wires (with the correct ends) from the relay to the panel under the dash. It was simple but not the 'best' solution. It works great though.

Taillight pics (no brake, both lights are leds in the picture, garage was lit):

 

Overall they are not any brighter. The rears are more dim but its minimal and still very clear during the day; unfortunately the brake light leds were teh most expensive @$20/ea thanks to the semi-new technology.

I like them alot, even though it was very costly for lights($100+)

Things I dont like was having to modify the rear turn signal wires to work with the leds.

If I did it again or end up changing anything I would go with a wider sidemarker led rather then the focused. Maybe an oval wide angle.

I will try and get some daytime shots for you guys.

 

which relay was the one you bought so we don't buy the same one you did.

which relay is the correct one?

Also, did you mean the turn signals are not as bright as you thought?

 

i just bought these from Superbrightleds.com
turn signals:
7443 Amber


and these for the side and plate:
194 Amber and Clear

I bought the EP35/EP36. I still dont know which one exactly is the correct one to buy but IIRC its the EP34 (the bottom of the stock flasher has letters for each prong, I will check mine sometime tomorrow do see which prongs are which letter).

The LEDS you got should do the job just fine. How many led are the 7443? I think mine are 15, I am sure they are the same or at least close to it.

The 194 matrix leds should also look good in the sidemarkers!

 

15 i think

But i just noticed, i bought 7443. Isn't this a dual filament bulb? Isn't the turn signal 7440. I have an 05'.

 

I dont think its a dual filament...

Here is a good place to get the list of required bulbs:

Sylvania has that info all screwed up, it's supposed to be 7440 and they have it at 7443.
