Yeah, most of us have.
Just to warn you, the switchbacks seem to cause the signal housing to fog up (not from condensation).

This has happened to a few. Not sure exactly how many ( like the percentage ). Mine are fine.

I didn't get mine through Vicious but every bulb with the exception of the rear trunk ones have been switched on mine. So far my Switch backs have not caused me any issues at all.

Yes and I recommend getting the built in led housing for your front turn signal lights.

If you want the normal switch back, I'll sell you mine

Hmm. I won a 50 dollar coupon to their website so I was just contemplating whether or not to do it. Is the install pretty easy?

Yes its pretty straight forward. When installing though before you put anything back in the housing check to make sure the light works. Certain ones have to be the right way or they will not work. Its also a good time to check the fitment by shaking the bulb a little to simulate driving.
Some of the lower cost led's would experience issues with road vibration after you put them in. Its not as common any more so I wouldn't expect to have an issue but it doesn't hurt to check.

The install is really easy. Turning your wheels inward would help a lot when trying to install the switch backs

So.. I'll be mixing optimum no rinse with my washing bucket. I'll probably have extra so anyone interested in trying it out as a quick detail? I've read people from autopia use it as a qd spray too. The only con is you'll be using more micro fiber cloth.
