Y3-3157 LED Bulbs White

If anyone has tried LED signal bulbs in most newer cars, you will quicky find out that the CANBUS system that controls everything does not work correctly with LEDs. This is because they don't draw enough amps. The system goes into hyper flash mode to warn you that you have a burned-out light. So, the manufactures of LEDs came up with the idea of having built in resistors to trick the system into working correctly with LEDs. They call them CANBUS ready LEDs. Problem with that is the resistor defeats the purpose of installing LEDs in the first place and cause the bulbs to get really hot and put just as much strain on the system as a regular incandescent bulb. This causes the bulb to not last anywhere near the expected lifespan of an LED. That being said, I installed these non-resistor bulbs in my 2016 Ford Explore after having terrible luck with the resistor type not lasting very long. As expected, the system went into hyper flashing mode so in the dash the flasher and lights flash about twice as fast as normal. But in this car on the outside the lights are flashing at the normal speed they should. So, I will live with it. They are nice a bright and come on instantly as they should. Hopefully they will last a long time since they don't have the hot resistors in them.

I bought red to place in the brake/tail lamp. With the already red lenses, these red LED lights have an even more noticeable red tint. The contrast between tail light and brake is very good. The build quality seems to be good. I expect these to far out-last the OEM bulbs. Installation was a breeze as expected. Good value for how much they improve the overall quality and safety of the vehicle.

Super bright love them!!!

These bulbs are great, extremely bright, clear light. The Amber ones are extremely bright as well. The down side is, these bulbs don't work properly in my truck (3rd Gen Ram). They DO work for the reverse lights, but for parking lights and the tail lights, the dash says "LAMP OUT" as if the bulb is burnt out, because of being such low power draw. They also remain illuminated, and do not get brighter when pressing the brake, and they cause the turn signals to hyper-flash. I do intend to order the ones with built in resistors and try those, so we'll see how that goes.

Low quality and malfunctioning. I installed on my wife's suv because we had to travel out of state just to find out minutes before we would leave it was malfunctioning and not working properly, it started flashing unnecessarily and mind you I have been a Auxbeam fan for years in at least 6 of my previous vehicles and I have always had a good quality LED bulbs but this time? Finding out your turning signals LED bulbs are malfunctioning going bananas right before you have to travel out of state and drive for 6hrs to a very important appointment. Nah man, this might of broken my trust and loyalty to Auxbeam and again I have been a loyal costumer for years. This was complete bullcrap.

I like the night visibility of these lights and the quality of these bulbs very much. Functionality is quite fine. Installation is a breeze and so is fitment for my use. The only problem I had was thinking that using clear bulbs in the red and amber lenses would make them easier to see or visible for longer distances. It made them worse actually, please buy the appropriate colors for your lenses if this is your desire. The colors will pop and day-time visibility will be so much better. Which was my goal 100%. The look is very great and the durability has to be great too as it has a very nice weight to them and it just says quality. But time will tell of course. As my use was for turn signals I just automatically used resistors with them as the first turn signal bulb I replaced with LED hyperflashed I just added resistors with blinker bulbs after that, I didn't know for sure that this bulb set required it or not.

Very nice and bright. Put these in my 2001 Chevy Silverado 2500HD running daytime lights.

Perfect fit super bright
