Default Switch back LEDs


Left Stock< >Right Switchback during DRL

Turn Signal On

both the switchbacks, on DRL mode


easy install looks more complicated than it is... was hoping it would match the HIDs a lil more but im happy with it...
Amber when i turn on my turn signals.

what do u guys think?

My Recon switchback match nearly perfect to my 6k's...but they run almost 45$ each!!!
Oh wait...I didn't notice you still have orange reflectors...that's what's making them look different...

Reflectors are coming out soon... was gonna go with some depo black housing headlights but i hate that they still have the reflector in it so ima do it myself.

i havent added the resistors because i kinda wanted to see what it looked like and if i liked it... ill be adding them asap. i bought them off ebay aswell so didnt spend to much it was 60 for 4.

I'm installing my switchbacks right now, and also have x4 50w, 6ohm load resistors. Just wondering if I should wire up one per bulb, or one per headlight? Which wires as well, there's green, brown, and black?

Got it figured, I'm stacking both resistors, soldering them together, and wiring into the harness that plugs into the headlight. If the plug is facing you, and down, the resistors will splice in between the center/lower black(ground), and the right upper light blue wire(flash/signal). Doing it this way I can mount the resistors on the frame and not have to worry about them melting anything or getting in the way when pulling the headlights out. Will have a write up/pics for anyone interested later.
