6000k HID will be the closest. I've never seen a halogen bulb that was close.

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but they don't seem to be working right after following the instructions to the letter. When are the white LEDs supposed to be on initially? With the parking lights and headlights? And I thought they were supposed to shut off while the ambers are flashing? Here's what mine are doing:

Looks right to me. They should turn white (from amber) when your headlights are on. That's how they work in the other vehicles that we sell them for.

Ok cool. What are the lights set to in the video in the initial post? I was just comparing to that (the white FR-S).

JWMotoring · 03-25-2013, 05:26 PM

Yeah I noticed his were a little different. Not sure what he was doing they're the same bulbs. The way yours work is how they should work.

Ok, thanks for your help.

I'm loving the look of these, just wish the white LEDs could be active as the DRLs without having to have the parking or headlights on (so the tail lights could stay fully off). Looks so much better than the stock DRLs.

JWMotoring · 03-28-2013, 08:46 AM

I've never seen one work that way. There are some out that work like ours except when in turn signal mode they only blink amber (no switching between white). You'll still have the amber DRL when the headlights are off.

We do have all white leds that will give you that white look you're looking for. They never turn amber though.
