Just found out about these but the price seems rather steep.

It's not so much him, it's his manufacturer. You have to consider the costs of manufacturing the product, the manufacturer agreeing to the rates at which these items will be shipped and sold, how big the market for the bulbs are, as well as the margin of profit Mike would make on his end. In addition to this, Mike's more of the enthusiast guy who looks to simplify things for the W204 community while absolutely minimizing/simplifying the efforts needed by the buyers to install the product. There's a whole bunch of factors that I probably didn't list, but basically, it isn't easy seeing as Mike's actually going through the process of DEVELOPING the bulbs specifically for the MB Market, while other vendors like iJDMToy are simply distributors of products manufactured by some other company. (Correct me if I'm wrong though)

That being said, the manufacturer on Mike's (or AZN's) could not design a product that was error free without the use of external resistors. Not sure whether it was due to engineering difficulties, costs, or installation complications though. However, seeing as apparently,iJDMToy worked out a design that does not, if you asked him now maybe Mike has an updated product in development as well seeing as technology keeps moving forward. I don't really know. But I guess until that day comes, if it ever does, iJDMToy will be the ones providing the LED turn signals for now.



And Ed, what did you mean by your sentence "same uses with the led ones they blink faster since unlike the halogen bulb they can automaticly turn off and on if that makes sense" ? Are you saying that they have the hyperflashing issue while not showing errors? Or that they do not have the hyperflashing issue like other LED turn signals do? Because that's a big difference for me that'll determine whether I buy the iJDMToy ones or not :P

No hyperflash but stock halogen turnsignals still have some delay when they blink, leds blink almost instantly if that makes sense so no delay going on and off and on and off

and all JDMTOY products are error free.. and should have a 100% pricew back I think if it shows errors

Well that's good. WELL THEN! If you answer my last question on my post there I may pick up a pair in the next few weeks or so. :3

Oh you jerk, editing the answer in after. Making my post look like partial spam. THE NERVE. But yeah. I know what you mean. Lol it's just like my LED Tail lights then. Just wondering, are they having a labor day sale? :P If they were a few bucks cheaper I'd be happy.

Well, back to the waiting game then. Sigh. Maybe I should just bite the bullet and do quads. Or go all out, risk heat from the old man and girlfriend and get WHEELS.

Almost have our front signals. Been working on the design on the side along with other products we're looking to bring online, but once we settle design, we'll be offering white and amber and will be priced similar to our existing bayonet models.
