    where and how much did you get them for?
    did they come with the resistors to prevent fast blinking or you install the resistors by yoursef?

    i've had them for about 2 years. here's what they look like at night next to 6000K HID in JDM cleared 1-piece headlights (click picture for the movie):



    you have to buy the resistors seperately (from them) but they are simple to install.

    Mine looks just like reelax's, I also am running the switchbacks with cleared JDM one piece. I'm amazed more people don't have these, they are the best of both world.

    it would be for your tags or your driving etc., these are perfectly legal.

    ^x2, that's the whole point of these, you get both the amber turn signals and the nice clear corners, that's why they cost a freakin ton of money for two bulbs.

    I'm not sure what he exactly meant by his post, but I had the same thought after seeing the video. They definitely catch the eye.

    If an officer saw these and thought that they could be illegal, he could pull me over. And then proceed to ticket me for my tint, no front plate, and the list goes on.

    NOTE: I do not have any illegal things mentioned in the above post *shifty eyes*

    edit: Don't get me wrong, I think they look friggen sweet! :D

    If you post stupid and incorrect information, you will get red nuggets.

    all of my led's are SMT (surface mount) like the original posters

    they are by far whiter than anything else. there really is no blue.

    I held them next to some older(top of the line) led's that i replaced, and it made the old ones look very blue.

    i got SMT in my license plate light and i got them for the city running lights for my jdm but they came out to be a tad bigger but i will fit them somehow, i will also order them for my gauge cluster and the interior light, they are by far my favorite LED lights ever
