Finally installed my sidemarkers

I got it from NOPI for $14. Even though the bulbs are small, they are extremely bright when lit. I just though they looked tight as hell being there's three in a row.

Looks nice. Are you planning on leaving them amber or swapping the bulbs for whites?

Looks great! Does this make your turn signals blink really really fast or is it normal?

I'm leaving them amber. The bulbs are fused inside the housing and can't be swaped out. That's the downfall the these. If a bulb or all bulbs blow out, I'll have to replace the whole thing.

LEDs blink fast only if they replace the original bulb. Sidemarkers are just add-ons to the signal. They blink normally.

These are not bulbs, they are LED=Light Emiting Diode. They don't blink faster, but they do turn on and off almost instantly.

BTW, I just ordered me a pair too.

Thanks for the pics.

Yeah, LEDs light up a lot faster, but the reason I was asking was because I had bought some LED replacement bulbs for my turn signal.

Since LEDs use such little amount of voltage, the electrical system acted just like the regular indacadescent bulb was burnt out and made the turn signals blink very fast.
