Bolksey85 Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Those would be the clear bulbs, correct? Or is the red behind the red lens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsfan999 Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 red bulb behind red lens. i also purchased amber bulbs for rear turn signals, which i'm waiting for. i want the switchbacks for the front but its a bitch to replace front turn signals so i may wait until the spring to try them out. good luck!

I'm mulling them over but still undecided. They look damn good and install looks straightforward but it's also $100 for bulbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windy Road Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Not to hijack this thread about these awesome bulbs. But i've bought led bulbs from here for my brake lights and they are still going strong after 3 years. http://autolumination.com/ 276hp/347tq On a DynoJet Dyno Video - Had a big lean spot as you can tell in the second pull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i've bought led bulbs from here for my brake lights and they are still going strong after 3 years. http://autolumination.com/ I've purchased autolumination's, superbrightleds, V-LEDs (prior to the V3 Triton) & DiodeDynamics best LED bulbs they all had to offer and NONE of them compare to the V3s. Just spreading the word that if you have $100 bucks laying around and want to spend it on awesome bulbs instead of a hooker, then by all means do it.

Windy Road Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Question, do you have LED reverse bulbs? I have the R Rev ones now and I was wondering is there anything brighter then those out there that you might know of. 276hp/347tq On a DynoJet Dyno Video - Had a big lean spot as you can tell in the second pull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddhahands Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 That's almost... too bright? or maybe the lens can't handle the light well? I have V-LED amber bulbs for my rear turn sigs and they look great. Don't know why I'd want to go even brighter. Why not put HIDs for all turn signals, reverse lights, etc?

metsfan999 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 If I could, I would. ^I've had V-Leds turn signals and during direct sunlight, people behind me couldn't tell if my turn signals were on or not. Now, thats not a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stang70Fastback Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Not to be annoying, but can we get videos of these during the day? Preferably a sunny day with the sun facing the side of the car you are filming? In other words, the worst case scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stang70Fastback Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 So I'm thinking these bulbs might be the solution to my DRL issue. My car, being a second gen, does not have DRLs, but I had gotten used to just always driving around with my lights on. However, I seemed to be going through headlights every couple of months, which started getting really irritating, so I stopped driving with my lights on during the day. I'm thinking a pair of switchbacks might make for a great solution to this problem, but I'm wondering what y'all think because I also feel as though it might look odd having the corner lights lit up like that. I'm not keen on spending $100 on something that might end up looking rather strange. http://www.subaruoutback.org/forums/attachments/classifieds/13033d1204469514-fs-1998-subaru-legacy-outback-limited-wagon-front.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RustyShackleford Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I just installed these: [ame=http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006R0XYGY/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i01]2pcs 31mm 12-SMD 1.25" 12V Festoon Dome Light LED Bulbs DE3175 DE3022 DE3021 3175 - White : Amazon.com : Automotive[/ame] ... for the curb lights (whatever you call the ones on the bottom edge of the front doors). They are slightly brighter than the stock bulbs. My main interest is in reducing power consumption, because I do a lot of car camping. The price is good ($6 for a pair, and free shipping if you're Amazon Prime), but I wonder how long they will last. Wondering if anyone here has used them for awhile ?

Stang70Fastback Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 They are called puddle lights, I believe. That is one of the main reasons I was looking into eventually converting to all LED bulbs - power efficiency with the vehicle off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyty Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I'd like to see this, too, if it's not asking too much. Is this still an option? I am interested in getting these to put in my cleared headlights Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
