I noticed it early on, which is why I got a Berk track pipe. But then it started happening more frequently after when I lowered my FR-S. That was a big reason why I wanted to replace lights with LEDs. After I replaced the side marker with VLEDs HVA bulbs, I haven't really encountered too many people merging into me. So I figured to do the turn signals. lol.

I also got a rear pair for my Yaris (I just gotta get the time to replace the flasher relay on that car and put those bulbs in).

I only go with cheap LEDs if the bulb is easy access and/or isn't meant to be crazy bright (like the parking lights and rear plate light on the Yaris, OEM are little 5w wedges. haha). Things that I need to be bright, especially if they're a pita to get to, I'll spend the money on VLED bulbs.

Anyone in NorCal have UEL headers paired with the ark Grip catback? Love to get a ride along to see how it sounds compared to my uel/ark dts setup to see if it's any quieter. Thanks in advance!

I went with all cheap ones. Already replaced the license plates lights and still need to swap my side markers since they flicker like crazy. My turn signals are 4.5 years old and intermittently goes out. Figure with the small price difference just replacing all of them with higher quality ones from here out isn't a bad idea.

I'd definitely go with VLEDs for the side marker ones. I'd hate to have to keep replacing those.
