Bright White LED Headlights and Front Signals
 
2 Attachment(s)
soon i will be ordering the JDM clear side marker so that the white led installed there will be able to shine white instead of the orange/amber color of the OEM

these look awesome as do the rear signals that i will be posting later on when it gets darker out tonight, the flasher relay really makes a difference and slows down the flasher timing to a normal pace.

These Match So nicely its perfect!

these are from HID_Powerhouse

I thought LEDs weren't go for headlights. How far do your's project.

Thanks ScionFR-S for the photos and purchasing our B-Max Super White front and rear turn signals LEDs. :thanks:

the LEDs arein the front and rear turn signals, they dont project as the HID Headlights do but they do have a decent lighting when just having them on without the headlights. they arent like foglights but they are just as good! the combonation of both the 6000K Platinum HIDs and the Super B Max White LEDs light up the road like no other!

I'm looking into this for my car

Right under your steering wheel. Pop your head under and you should see it at the top in the middle.

its very very hard to get to, this is no easy task as i really didnt know how to pop out the OEM Signal relay and cracked it in half resulting in two popped fuses and the car not going into gear, signals not working, and gears and gauges not working. be careful and try not to cut up your fingers like me lol be gentle and HAVE PATIENCE.... totally worth it and without the relay for the LEDs , your LEDs will blink 5x the pace and wont look that great

ScionFR-S 11-12-2012 05:37 PM

search HID_Powerhouse on the forums and find his signal relay kit, all his stuff is top notch and great quality , highly highly recommend him!

Take off the lower part of the dash (under the steering column) then remove the metal plate that's behind that (2 screws). This made it SOOOO much easier to get to that stupid relay.

A long slim flathead through the top of the clip will detach it. Took a few tries, but you can figure out the way it works by looking at the new relay (if it's designed to clip in).

I couldn't even get my big paws in there to remove the harness without taking the whole thing out.

Wow, this is potentially illegal, I believe. Front turn signals must be amber in color where I live, and I think it's that way for nearly all 63 states. ;)

I dont know about him, but I got the switch back blinkers that switch to amber color when the turn signal is in use. When not in use, they are white. Ultimately, it leads to being legal. The one I am more concerned about is the side marker, which is also supposed to be amber in a lot of states.

To clarify... when you're running the headlights... the "Turn signal" bulbs are white -- UNTIL -- you turn on the turn signal... then the white light (right or left) turns amber?? If that is the way it works... I want this mod!!

That is correct.

These are the ones I bought. They arent perfect (they are big so they barely fit with a little light push), but they are as described. White during normal driving conditions, amber when using the turn signal.
