Switchback LED's for turn signals?

Hey guys! Was wanting to know if anyone has had any experience with these switchback turn signals for the evo?

I saw them on this site

http://store.ijdmtoy.com/7440-Single...s-p/20-325.htm

And in this video with the evo


I think they look sick and give a modern look to our cars. Especially if we cant fork over the cash for some JDM evo 9 headlights.

I am curious as to whether running the LED's constantly would burn the headlight housing or if there would be any negative effect to installing these?

Any feedback would be great!

oh and 1st post! Woo! lol

WAY TOO BRIGHT

If it were a dull white color, like 30% the intensity of that it would be better

Those look pretty sweet.

I'm interested in just picking them up and testing them out. They just plug and play I'm assuming?

you'll need load resistors so they dont hyperflash, otherwise yes they're just plug and play

Dude I had those same ones on my Subaru. They are not bright at all. If anything it's a little bit of a let down. The video kind of exaggerates it a little bit. I ati have videos of on YouTube. I still have an extra pair that I'm am debating to install.

^ I saw the reviews said that they aren't very bright during the day. That's a bummer. I really considered on getting a set lol

Yeah. The white part is fine for the day...but the Amber/Orange is weak and concerning.
