I was going to buy the switchback turn signals, and resistors, but you said you just need the new flasher module.

My question is, does the flasher module work if you just replace the front turn signals, or do you have to replace all 4?

Thanks, and all of your trucks look awesome.
The flasher will work whether you change the fronts only, rears only or all 4. I got the flasher because I bought the switchbacks first and had hyperflashing. Vleds was out of the taillight bulbs I wanted so I had to do just the fronts first.

Hyperflashing before I bought the electronic flasher:

They aren't running the same switchback so I posted DarkShadowSTX's and BayouSupercrew's videos

I went to a couple Autozones today trying to find the flasher. They have replaced the Tridon EP27 with a Blazer FL27. It doesn't work.

Had to order it off of V-leds website with tundrasolutions coupon code for 15% off.

Just got a full set and the dome light LED that I got (Here) doesn't come on. The regular light works at the two 'on' positions, but the LED doesn't work at either one. Could it be a bad LED or is there some trick I don't know about?

Did you try flipping the bulb 180 degrees? LEDs are polarity sensitive. So, if they don't work, flip them around and they should come on.

Just got an email from Vleds about their sale next week, Monday through Wednesday. BFD is the code to get 20% off your next order. Just thought I'd share and sorry if I pissed off all you guys that just bought stuff.
Has anyone done their gauge cluster? Now is the time that I would get those bulbs. How many bulbs do I need and they are 74s right?

Awesome news! Thanks for the heads up on this sale. I was just about to pull the trigger on some switchbacks and reverse LEDs. Looks like I'll be waiting until Monday.

Who'da thunk it! That was the trick. It never occurred to me that LEDs had polarity. That's probably why I blew five fuses trying to get the license plate LEDs to work too. lol

You are ordering bulbs for the reverse tail lights, right? which ones are you ordering? I ordered the wrong ones from V-LEDS. Have to return them and reorder. Which bulbs are you looking at?

Yeah, I'm ordering the reverse lights. I'm getting the 8w 921 LEDs. They are the same bulbs that go in the cargo lights.

Cool, thanks for the info. Looks like they are currently out of stock. I replaced my cargo lights with these from autolumination http://autolumination.com/906.htm. These were much less money than V-LEDS. Might try these for my tail lights if they are the same as the cargos. Thanks again!

Do you know how many times I went to order those switchbacks and I just couldn't do it for the price. I know they are good quality but I just cant bring myself to paying $55 + bucks for 2 lights.


On a side note, I ordered my puddle lights (out of stock, have to wait) and my license plate lights but I also wanted to order cargo lights but they are out of stock on almost all the good stuff.

I don't have any experience with autolumination. I've always been very satisfied with the shipping time and customer service from v-LEDs. I'm thinking I've heard that people have had issues with autolumination. Don't quote me on that though. However, if you've had good experience with them, go for it.
