Thanks for taking the time to do the sticky. Most likely I will only do the rear.

Space? They go where the stock bulbs are, where are you putting the strobes?

I saw your thread about the switchbacks and decided to do this mod then found another one so I decided to change all the bulbs to LEDs, subscribed so I don't loose em and could always go back to the references through my CP.

Jay, I found out that our corner lights ( I understand you don't have them) use 3156 bulbs, would these LED bulbs fit and do they fill the whole fixture with light when lit?

Cool, got it.
As for the cornering lights, not sure if they would fit. Since putting on the new bumper I haven't really messed with them. I'd ask around though...

So the output sucks? I am not looking to light up the driveway but I hate seeing cars with LEDs that look like there is a light-dot in the lamp. Can you take some pics Dan? Which LED lights did you use for this mod anyway?

LOLOLOL

I'll try to get some pics tomorrow, because right now I am dead and still have lots of h/w to do. The tower that I used is the same exact one that is for the front turn-signal, same design, but diff socket. The 20 LED tower. I wouldn't say that it looks like a "dot," it just doesn't fill up the amount of space with light as it would with OEM...you still see it light up a little bit though.

QUESTION.. Can you do the assembly JUST for the front signal lights? Also, is there a way someone can post the directions for how to do just the front signal lights? I just wanted the front ones to blink. Also, since its the Tower II lights, if you choose the blue light, will it blink blue and amber or what? Im kind of confused or just makin it hard for myself... Please Help!

For the fronts, just look in the stickies for directions, it's easy.
It's not the Tower II it's the switchbacks lower on the page, they only come in wht/amber. Besides blue will get you busted quicklike!!!
