PnP turn signals?

im looking at buying these turn signals for my 01 screw, do you guys think they are really pnp like it says, looks like it plugs into were the normal bulb plugs in, but ive herd stories were you need extra stuff to make the leds work right

You mean like an LED flasher?

You gonna change your headlights as well? Might look a little out of place with the older "frosted" OEM ones.

Me and raptor both have those corners, with lightning style heads.

His was plug and play for the LED turns, mine I had to cut the plug off and splice the wires together (only three wires, really easy.) Heres the pics...


DRL/parking lights

blinkers

blinkers and DRL's


nothing else needed to make them work, the resistors are built into the light themselves and that accounts for the voltage drop from incandescent to LED's.

Sin, those will look good. But yes, just plug in and your good to go. Keep in mind the orange only comes on with the turn signal. The 4 white DRL LEDs are your running lights. Also, they do not have amber reflectors so be mindful of the 5-0.

Sundevil, why did you have to splice? I was thinking about splicing mine so the 4 DRLs are on with the ignition wire.

You both might want to invest in a set of HIDs

The plugs for the corners were totally different. One was skinny and long, the other was round and kinda fat. I didnt take pics...did it in a hurry after work. Ill try and get some to show you what I mean.

Yeah...i need HID's bad. Anyone wanna donate? I take paypal. What kind are you running Raptor?

I have a set of 6000K single-beam bulbs and a harness, but no ballasts. I would recommend just getting a new set though. I'm running 6000K Bi-xenon. Yesterday I snipped the middle white wire and ran it to an ignition source so my 4 white DRL LEDs light up whenever the ignition is on the "on" position.
