The reason it's called a switchback is that when you put your turn signals on the leds will blink amber as a regular legal turn signal and when you are driving they stay blue. I did notice that the regular ambers do not stay on when you're driving as they do on many other cars....although this is easy to modify.
I've updated mine to switchbacks...ordered from V-Led.

Here are the ones I bought:
6K TYPE 2 DUAL COLOR CHANGING WHITE AMBER SWITCHBACK 48 PARKING/TURN SIGNAL BULBS 7443 7443NA | 1 PAIR

Will also need these for hyperflash correction:
LED LOAD EQUALIZER RESISTORS TURN SIGNAL BLINKER FIX | 1 PAIR - Resistors

Does anyone know if you need Ballasts for fog lights when only changing the bulb to an HID bulb?

Unless the fogs has already been updated to HID, then the bulbs can be replaced with just a HID bulb replacement.

If the fogs are stock, then a HID kit with ballasts will be needed.

I try to replace the vanity light with a 12 LEDs festoon bulb and blew the fuse. Is it because the LED is drawing more than the regular bulb of 2W or I accidently shorted the contact? Thanks.

I'm looking for 5000K, equally bright or slightly brighter that the current stock bulbs.



Thanks.
These are 194/168 Mini-wedge stye, there are tons of options out there, the latest ones I've tried are the Osram 11-Watt in Super White. They really fill out the lense nicely with a bright white/hint of blue.

Lots of other Choices: 194 168 W5W 2825 Map Led Parking Signal Marker Bulbs

WLED Miniature Wedge Base LEDs | LED Car Bulbs | Super Bright LEDs

Update: I no longer recommend the Osram 11-Watt from Autolumination for the city lights/marker lamps, they seem to overheat and shut off after 30-45min of being on. They are bright, but guess not made for constant on, oh well back to the vled versions I took out.

Enjoy!
