Kodename47 446 Report post Posted August 3, 2016 Yeah. Only the US Red versions have red indicators. The clear US and all JDM ones have amber IIRC 1 Mike reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just realized I'll have to swap the buggers back in a few weeks for MOT. just try the green bulb trick for the indicators to try and get them orange Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tareim 343 Report post Posted August 3, 2016 no idea what led size is required for the toms tbh, most likely different to the standard bulbs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

long-gone 152 Report post Posted August 6, 2016 Appeared to be working fine, but after a couple of days they froze, right indicator on solid (not flashing) even with ignition off. Dunno whether it's the unit, flasher relay or what but I really can't be arsed any more. They may look the best, but they're worst for reliability. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tareim 343 Report post Posted August 6, 2016 it's a shame you're having issues with them but if you are genuine about the FOC collection I'd be able to collect them on the 20th Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan7954 35 Report post Posted August 6, 2016 Don't stress mate. Sounds like the flasher relay to me. if the output of a relay stays on with the control side/power turned off then the contacts have welded Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toybaru1 15 Report post Posted August 7, 2016 Don't you need a different relay for led indicators?? Hope this guide is openable! Exterior_LED_Install_Guide.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan7954 35 Report post Posted August 7, 2016 My toms came with a new relay, I'd imagine the same goes for the op as they were working fine to start with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan7954 35 Report post Posted August 7, 2016 I'd try the relay first mate... even put your old one back in to see if it works? I know it will flash quickly but that will tell you if it is the relay at fault.. I doubt it would be anything else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
