new mod = Tail as Turn signal + extra back up led Mod

[TheWage]

larger white goes into the top where the old turn signal used to be

small white is to replace original backup light with something whiter and brighter.

I just installed the TaT using the DD module and the bulbs that [MENTION=156753]rayofsi[/MENTION] recommended. It took 5 minutes and I used 3M tape to mount the ballast so that it isn't banging around in there. Don't want any rattles. It looks great and I love the ease of installation. Thanks again for your recommendations and especially how much money you saved me by not buying DD's overpriced LED's.

Do you have another link to the 921 bulb on amazon? The bottom link wasn't working.

For that price you could just add another set of led lights just under the rear valance.

I don't think this is a good mod when you start altering the effectiveness of your turn warning. Yes, other cars come this way. Is it preferred? No.

This company has priced themselves out of popularity in my opinion.

1 set of each. $26.00 spent on led bulbs on top of the tail as turn module.

thanks for saving me some money!

Cool mod, but my thoughts...

...mainly because you can get some more reverse light...

Brighter backup lights while retaining stock appearance is the only real benefit of this mod.

I think it's pretty cool but is it legal?

We may get away with it, but if you guys check bulb specs you'll see that stock turn signal bulbs are more intense than tail lights / marker lights. (Incandescent tails typically 3 watts, incandescent turns typically 23 watts or more)

Red turn signals have been used in many American brands for a long time so color is not an issue.

But with this mod your new turn signal is actually the brake light, not the regular running light. So its as bright if not brighter than the original turn signal.

This is why I did it. Pretty cheap and easy way to get more reverse lighting in my stock lights.

AHA!
Title is misleading then... "Tail as Turn signal"
Should be "BRAKE lights as turn signal"

If the brighter brake lights double as turn signals, then that makes it a cool, really useful and legit mod.

Emailed the company and haven't got anything back.

For those of you who have bought this. When it says 1x Tail as Turn on their website, is that a complete set for both sets of lights, or is that just one of the modules and that's it?

I haven’t bought them but I am pretty sure it’s pair.

Hello,
Please pardon my ignorance, but the top link takes me to the Amazon item that costs $95.99? Is that about right?

If it is, is there a cheaper substitute?

Thank you so much in advance!

Backing out of the driveway and being able to see the cars parked on the street has been a godsend. I swapped cars with my son's '16 Corolla and I can't see anything on his backup camera.

Thanks

Just search for 7443 and 921 led bulbs, those are the correct sizes, it's not brand dependent.

Here is my new video of the switchbacks from Diode Dynamics. I love them!
4Runner - Switchback LED Turn Signals | The Ronin Chronicle

They are incredible!

Love the switchbacks, but it looks like they have a delay when switching? is that true.

Also, do you think the harness could work for the rear tailights? Tapping into the reverse light line to keep the amber turn signal?

Might be a little late here, but I ordered:

JDM ASTAR Extremely Bright 2000 Lumens 360 Degree Shine 921 912 90-EX

JDM ASTAR 1200 Lumens Extremely Bright 144-EX Chipsets 7440 7441 7443 7444 992 LED Bulbs

And used the kit from Diode Dynamics.

Those switchbacks look pretty cool too...
