Do you have problems with your signal light going into rapid fire mode? Also if you have part numbers or where you purchase them from, post that info also.

[BenzTech Gone Versa]

no problem with the lights at all.I got it off of flea bay.part#head lights=H4front marker/park=194all turn signals=7507dome light=30mm festoon bulb(1.1/4inch).map lights=same as dome!lic plate=194trunk light=30mm festoon bulb.(1.181inch).

i just ordered a bunch of LED's off of http://www.superbrightleds.com

They are fairly cheap there!

Hey guys..my bad!I just noticed that the turn signals blink fast!the 4 way hazzards blink normal though!I like the fast blinking cuz it looks as if its strobing.

meh ya they do this because the car thinks the bulb is blowen because of such low power consumption from the led's, owell

Buy yourself a few resistors, I'm not sure how many Ohms you need though.

[BenzTech Gone Versa]

6 Ohm, 50 Watt resistors can be connected across the turn signal bulbs to simulate the load of a regular filament bulb (2 Amp load). This will solve LED related turn signal problems such as hyper flashing or burnt out bulb indications.OR install the flashers below.........................

i will try to take a pictures of my 194 PIAA LED blubs.

looks tight, question, HOW IN THE HECK DO YOU GET THE TAILLIGHTS OFF!!???? lol Im going nuts trying to get them off, because it feels like I am going to break em. I got the 2 nuts underneath the plastic removable panels, am I missing something?

[proxim2020]

You should only have to take off the 2 nuts and that's it. There's a connector on there also that you'll need to remove to get the lights off.

Use a Plastic wedge of some sort.only 2 nuts hold it in.at the end of the tail light is a lil slide piece.it will feel as if u are gonna break it but it wont.just use a wedge after removing the 2 nuts.disconection of the connector is not needed but if you want to remove,disconect it while the tail light is on the car,its easier.

i c, thanks

[reyes1212]

benz, i'm new to this and was wondering how you installed them.i've been trying to see how you would do it by just looking at it, but yeah...i'm back on step 1: how to do it.lol

[KimberKenobi]

i need more info on this... I want to put red LEDs in my front turn signals, but if I do that, they absolutely can't fast blink or I'll be pulled over quick... and I'd like to avoid that... I saw a car the other day with red turns and I liked it... or maybe I should do blue.... hmmmmm...... anyway, more info please!!

[BenzTech Gone Versa]

I actually took off my head lights.I replaced my drivers side.The bulbs are still accesable from the engine baywith it on the car.they are a lil tight!!!After i took the bulbs out a few times it was easier to turn.Get a grip on the bulb socket and turn it 1/4 turn counter clockwise......................asfor the turn signals.i would replace the relay with an electronic flasher.the link is on my last comment.

yeah... I looked at the link, but that didn't really make much sense to me... I am new at the DIY with the car thing (but the guy who is fixing up my 'Kik is helping me) and I'm eager to learn, but can you explain the "electronic flasher" in english? I know that a resistor would let the existing mechanism sense a full load, but what does the electronic flasher do? It replaces the relay (I'm guessing the part that senses the load from the bulbs) ... is this right?

*forehead, palm*

[bigant]

yo where on ebay did you get the leds looked and i cant find them.i got fogs from ebay with the leds ring there sick.i will be makeing new fog lamp finishers.i dont like the old ones

front marker/park=194all turn signals=7507dome light=31mm festoon bulb(1.1/4inch).map lights=same as dome!lic plate=194(168/501)trunk light=30mm festoon bulb.(1.181inch).but i installed the 31mm.i had to pull back the tabs a lil.[/QUOTE]http://stores.ebay.com/US-Home-DirectI got it from this guy,the delivery charge is retarded but it came out to the same price as a autozone or parts store.but i couldn't find the right size bulbs out in the parts stores.....................................................I still havent had time to look into the fast blinking turn signals.

[rolla_guy72]

Also, check out AutoLumination.com they have about 20 different styles for each type of bulb. I'll be buying some stuff from them for my Ranger in the near future.

[bigant]

is your head lights HIDS or not.

[BenzTech Gone Versa]

Yeah My headlights are H.I.D.Temp. is 4,300 kelvin.AND They dont blind ppl.I aimed them LOW!

[KimberKenobi]

Question: so the cover on eBay isn't just for the outer light piece, there's a whole black cover that's supposed to go on the outside ?!? I thought that those turn signal mirror thingies were supposed to run through the inside and just the light big show on the outside... what a disappointment.

[BenzTech Gone Versa]

re you talking about the mirror cover turn signal?I bought thos months ago and it did not fit.way to small!!! the cover is poorly made.its just a plastic piece that double sided tape holds on the outter mirror cover.......................................................................sorry for the delay on answers,i was in california for a few weeks without the "V". and im gonna look into the relay and fast blinkind signal repairs soon.Back in NYC....I miss cali! too cold to work on my "V"!!!

[idunno22221]

yeahh bringing a dead post back to life.

but i want to get white led's for my license plate lights. i know benztech said it was like a 194 but i'm still confused. is that like the bulb? i'm usually pretty good at this. but i'm so confused. i was on superbrightleds.com and they had a 194 led but i wasnt sure if it was right.

http://www.superbrightleds.com/mini-wedge.html

^^they are the first ones. (194 that is)

any help is much appreciated!

[remiasz]

i want to get red dome lights and room lights, can someone send me a direct link to buy them?

[remiasz]

also does anyone know a site as to i could get pink headlights instead of the stock ones? because ive seen pink headlights and they look pretty tight with a pink tint

I'm just going to slowly step out of this topic and shut the door behind me now.
