LED conversion
Hey WAZOO!
For WAZOO guys I thought I would share what I learned for updating our exterior lighting and also offer my service to convert all exterior lighting. CHMSL mod to LED can be done with no other modification: https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Rear-3r...72.m2749.l2649 Tail light conversion requires electronic flasher and I strongly recommend Sylvania ZEVO red LED. This LED will not create a hot spot in the middle of the tail light lens: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Prong-Ele...rd!22102!US!-1 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Sylvania-Ze...ss!22102!US!-1 Front turn signal: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Sylvania-ZE...ss!22102!US!-1 Front turn signal side light and rear quarter backup lights (both in clear lens): https://www.ebay.com/itm/2X-1156-301...AAAOSweVNbYrue Rear Back up lights (flanking license plate): https://www.ebay.com/itm/2X-1156-301...AAAOSweVNbYrue If interested pick up parts you need and I will install for you. Tail lights do not require modification to light bulb sockets. Other locations require touching up of bulb socket outer edge with Dremel. If perfect NCRS is you thing, I recommend tail lights only!

Re: LED conversion
Question,
with the signal on, does the side marker flash? then with parking lights on does the side marker flash?

For now, I am running conventional front turn signal and side markers up front. I have side tracked to 200 amp alternator project at the moment. Do you have any wisdom to share for front turn signal LED mod? |

I built Goldcylon 3 sets of Side marker LED Conversions.. plugs into the harness then into the T5 bulb, so he is running LEDs in the front of the car with no issues. With the circuits I made GC, they are low current draw with LED but should work with normal lamps (but not recommended).

LED conversion
Hey Yun,
I just want to add that I bought everything as you mentioned and all worked fine. I do have Euro lamps so the appropriate bulbs and colors, but same brand. I ordered these for the front cornering lamps and received them today. They work great and plug right in with no mods. AMAZENAR 2-Pack 1156 BA15S 1141... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N0GP3ZP...p_mob_ap_share IMG_3563.JPG Thanks again for the recommendations!!! Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry
