So serge, I know you said the quad projectors cost more and the ones with just one projector per side already runs over $1k. How much more is it for quads?

All in around $1500 give or take a buck. :)

No kidding ... I went over there for attention ******* only to realize that sumo was already a god over there. Massive fail! :(

Actually no, just sharing with other enthusiasts and mentioning TYF in the process.

I like the bright white LED on your DRL/Switchback. I'd be interested in getting some white LED lights like you have if they come in 4114 (none switchback). Is it possible to get them?

Mmm, well I got them from v-leds so these are the straight white (no switchback) in 4114: http://www.v-leds.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=4114

Although those have 6 less leds than the ones I have so I'm pretty sure they will be as bright.

Another vendor everyone seems to be happy with is http://autolumination.com/ but I can't see 4114s there.

Thanks guys. On your HyHoe, you running 5k or 6k?

Is it plug and play or would I have to install a resistor or whatever so the LED's don't burn out, or is that only for turn signal lights?

Just noticed this:
WARNING
Not for use in continuous on applications such as DRLs. Bulb failure may occur if on high output mode for more that 15 minutes due to over heating.

Keith I run 5k.

I'm not an expert on these but I'm not running load resistors on the drls, I run them only for the blinker elements of the switchbacks. In fact my understanding is that have load resistors on drls is not only not necessary on dual circuit leds (which these are) but in fact could end up overheating.

So the short answer is yes, they are plug and play. :)

Good to know. I'd love to run these in my DRLs but I'd hate to spend $60 in lights and have them burn-up in 20 minutes.

Think that would happen?
