$70 a pair and its so worth it. Besides, it helps when there's a 10 or 15% coupon

I might have to get them. Does anyone know the bulb type for the little bulbs in the side reflectors? I want to switch those to white LED.

i would suggest the amber 194. white leds behind the orange reflector look not right to me. maybe you will, maybe you wont. i run amber ones behind the reflectors in our kr and they look good. i dont run anything behind my silver reflectors

I have clear reflectors White LEDs will look good in them to match my 5k HID projectors and switchback turn signals. All pure white color.

This is what I have and boy are those switchbacks ever bright. I feel like they contribute 65% of my headlight glare. I have also thought of taking them out. what do you guys think?

Yea, there isn't enough glare since the output of leds isn't very high. It just appears like there is a lot since they fill the reflector well with so many leds firing backwards.

Just ordered the 5k switchbacks and flat-style 1W 194 white LEDs for my clear side reflectors. This is going to look so slick with the 5k retro!
