Led turn signals

Featured Replies

Hey guys I’m just making this thread for the people who want to switch from stock turn signals to led ones but are in a dilemma or simply want to know what the outcome is. I bought my led turn signals from AliExpress 
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32807664041/32807664041.html

 

They are pretty cheap to buy and honestly are way better than the regular old bulbs. The leds are a lot brighter and emit an amber/ orange colour the old bulbs were yellow. The start up and turn off time is pretty instant unlike the regular bulbs hence the leds blink slightly quicker when compared to the regular bulbs side by side. 

 

Ps. My car does not have the canbus system hence did not need resistors with the leds, I assume the cars with the maxidot have canbus and might need resistors.

Update: The turn signals have started hyper flashing for some reason (they weren't earlier). They seem to be working fine on the hazard lights though. I'd suggest everyone to purchase resistors with these leds.

Or we could leave the standard bulbs in place :D

Agreed, turn signals are better off as the standard ones. Shall be switching back to the standard ones myself.:speechless:

@Anishk - The flash rate on standard turn signals is dependant on the circuit resistance. Put back one of the standard bulbs, and remove the other bulb, and see how the flash rate changes!
