LED turn signals

[ElectroBoy]

Those with the lasfit canbus front or rear turn signals do you find them too bright? I don't want to annoy other drivers. 1200 lumens each bulb seems very bright for turn signals. Has anyone found another less bright option led turn signal which doesn't require installing resistors, etc?

Jeez, with so many people using drop-in headlight LEDs and running fog lights all the time and blinding oncoming traffic, why be concerned over bright turn signals that get used for a few seconds?
I’m kind of kidding.

But actually, the Lasfit amber turn signals *are* super bright. I like them during the day because they really catch the attention of drivers behind and in front of you. At night I use them sparingly and I turn them off if I’m waiting in the turn lane at a long traffic light.

On my Tacoma I used VLEDs V6 Triton turn signals. Output is 500lm per bulb. Their wiring harness accepts their plug in resistor but it is extra. I was very happy with their products but haven't replaced anything on the Runner yet.

Do you still have these equipped? How have they aged? Any hyper flash issues?

I had them on for about 2 years without issues. The offer a plug in resistor pack to deal with the hyperflash.

Is there a crowd favorite for signal bulbs that aren't "holy moly" bright? I'd like to upgrade to LEDs but I really don't feel like blinding everyone at night.

You can see my comment from earlier in the thread. Still happy with them.

I had a set of Unique Style Racing in the rears with similar brightness as the Lasfits. In my opinion they are just too bright when it is dark. Blinding to people behind you.

I removed them and replaced them these and am much happier. Not much brighter than OEM and still do not require resistors to prevent hyperflash.

I too was worried about heat with these because they say they can overheat after 2-5 minutes of use.

running hazards are typically going to be past 5 minutes. So was a concern for me. Has anyone noticed anything while running hazards etc?

Installed these, no hyper flash. BLINDING bright. Excellent for foggy/rainy weather, though I feel bad for a anyone behind me at night when I signal to merge.

LASFIT LED Turn Signals (video review)

I made the plunge into LED turn signals last year with the LASFIT bulbs... I've been pretty happy with them.

I have seen them overheat + hyperflash when its 100+ outside and I leave them on for a long time (longer than 3 minutes). They cool off pretty quickly.

Cool video. :thumb3:
Did you have to remove the front bumper because of your unique headlight situation? I didn’t have to do that with my stock setup. I accessed the bulbs through the wheel well liner wearing a long sleeve shirt and gloves for scrape protection.

No...

I just wasn't thinking at the time, but to my credit - it did show a bunch more in the video of how it all is up in there. :shrug:
