Has any body used led flashers, if so any problems?
Also I want some leds for parklights but don't know wat color would look good. I have fake blue hid bulbs that look whitish blue

 

V-leds.com for LED exterior bulbs. If you get LED turn signals they will flash quickly since they have a different resistance compared to filament bulbs. A resistor will remedy that though

 

Also if you change all of your exterior bulbs out it should also remedy that (turn signals that is)

 

i can get you a discount on vision x bulbs?

 

Thanks guys

 

i ment l.e.ds lol but ya

 

So if I were to put LED bulbs in the front and rear blinkers, I wouldn't get that annoying double-time flash?

 

you still will, the above statement is not true...you need a LED flasher, do not add a load resistor to stop you hyper flash, you are basically loosing the benefit of low amperage draw you get from LEDs just buy the relay, they are only like $15

 

Joey is right, installing resistors will fix the problem, but it's a lotta work, you lose the efficiency, and they can get real hot, to the point of melting stuff. The flasher is the logical way to go.
We sell dropin LED bulbs at our store: www.halolightstore.com

 

The fast clicking doesn't even bother me, I prefer it actually.

 

maybe....

The reason for the fast clicking is to let you know that you have a bulb out, but since those LEDs will probably outlive you, you're in good shape if the noise doesn't bother you.

 

i put led blinkers all the way around were can i get a led flasher

 

you might consider leaving your stock turn signals as is-and using side marker LED's in addition to them.

I did Hella LED side markers-not particularly difficult to cut into the fenders and now have that Euro style complement to my ride. You might be noticing a lot of the newer cars have side markers now. I have no problems with quick flash indicators whatsoever.

I tried to use LED bulbs in the back for my brake/tail lights and it always threw the ABS code and disabled the cruise control. Not worth it in my mind-I simply returned to regular dual filament bulbs.

Pics on my Facebook link. Mad props to several guys, notably RitzyRunner who got me thinking in the right direction.

 

Any chance you could post pics of this?

 

sorry my picture file sizes taken at that time are too large for this forum.

I'll try to get some smaller file size pictures taken today in the sunshine to share.

 

I'm running LEDs in all my exterior lighting, and I went the resistor route. I will agree with the above posts though, an LED flasher is the way to go. That said, I ran "plug and play" LED bulbs for a while, and even the expensive ones are no where near as bright as standard filament bulbs. I made my own LED arrays and am very happy with them:

What the front bumper array looks like:

 

pdyebrasil, love your set-up man! Great video!

 

Hey thanks man... I am just really big into LEDs and HIDs... Just lighting in general I guess! I've had much greater success making my own LED arrays as opposed to buying pre-made bulbs; it's A LOT cheaper, and they are much more reliable as well... but the best thing is they are WAY BRIGHTER.

Here's a thread on my 3rd-brake light:

Don't mean to hijack, just trying to show some options

 

anyone know where i could get an LED flasher for my 95 4runner?
