Mines are the 9w 18 mm but I'm gonna use the 23 mm fish eye switchbacks for my front turn signals

I saw those, was gonna do the same but I know the white is a 5000k and wouldn't match my 6000k lows and fogs like my current switchbacks do now.
I only get the Fisheye ones. the projectors right?

I also had the idea of using those switchbacks in place of my puddle lights in my mirrors (would look crazier on a white truck) or under the body, so they're white running lights at night and switch to amber during turns. lighting up the ground in white then amber. Wonder if they are a type 1 or type 2 switchback ? I would assume type 1

That use to be my issue but I'm gonna make the leap to led headlights so it should be closer

Eventually when I get around to a retro I'll make that jump as well.

That's another awesome idea

Thats a better picture of the led roll

you need the sealed ones if you are running them outside the truck. they come exactly the same but the are encased in a flexible clear strip.

EDIT: maybe those are the sealed ones? hard to tell.

I agree. I'm not really sure what possessed me to go with the 6500k's when bought the whole retrofit.

Yeah a lot of people go that direction first cuz they like the look. Visibility isn't as good though.

These are what I have in my doors.

They are as bright as you can get for a 194 bulb.

I don't think there's a sharp enough edge to put the strips without having the leds showing

Also what kind of crappy game was that from dallas? the giants ...really?! ...the giants?!! :think:
Link?
