poll:white turn signals or amber signals?

[bish0p]

hello. currently i have bright white LED turn signals with crystal clear corners. i'm debating on whether i should keep these or i should switch to amber signals for my clear corners. the only thing i dont like about the white LEDs is that it blinks fast.

this is jstrat's car. i hope you don't mind me using your picture jstrat.


this is mine


do you think i should switch to amber or keep my white lights?

according to your picture, the white looks better with those projectors

I love the amber and hate the fast blinking. So I'de do amber.

fast blinking? the white ones make it blink faster?

They do unless you put in resistors.

How do I put in resistors? Where do I attach them? I need to figure this out because the light out warning lamp is driving me insane! I have 26LED amber corner bulbs...I just need to know where to attach the resistors.

yeh they flash fast if you use LEDs. that's why i want to get rid of these white bulbs. they're super bright but i dont like the fast blinking. there's 2 ways to do it. either get a relay to slow it down, or you can put a load resistor on. unfortunately they dont have the relay for our car because we use a combination relay. the load resistors would work but i wouldn't recommend it as these are fire hazards, they get EXTREMELY hot.

i love the look of amber corners with HID's, i say go amber

I already have resistors for my license plate lights, and all seems to be fine there...but HOW do you connect the resistor to the bulb?

[bish0p]

for the turn signals you have to tap into the wires for each corner, so you would need 4 for all around. it's not too difficult, you can find it on ebay and they show you how to do it, i forget how but i believe you bridge it from the negative and positive wires.

what about the RL-650 on this page...

Would that suffice? So I would need four as opposed to two?

anyone??
