Smile LED Front Turn Signals on eBay

FINALLY picked up some LED front amber turn signals, my exterior lighting is now finally fully LED (except for the HIDs and old skool fogs)... went ith abmber instead of white because I want them to match the mirror blinkers...



Anybody else have experience with these from eBay?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Amber...item20bc64aeaa

I wanted to get AZN brand but got tired of waiting forever for them to be created, so I had to go with these.

Looking forward to replacing my non-instant-on stealth bulbs finally

Yo, these are the ones that I have.



I got these from eBay and they use 5050 SMD LEDs and are super bright!

The one's that you got should do the trick, and they look perfectly fine. The only thing I would advise is that the bulbs have built-in resistors and are error-free. The one's that I purchased are error-free with built-in resistors and I've been running them for four months, if not more, with zero issues and excellent light output.

If I am not mistaken the ebay link are probably the same ones from ijdmtoy.

The ones that mikonuj has are probably these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/190496807482...ht_2883wt_1163

And then there are these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/270771112008...ht_2385wt_1163

So basically it comes down to 3 choices.

Ya - Looks Like I paid a Premium for 21 LED lights instead of 15

Hope they are 40% brighter with 40% more LED lights!

Mikonuj, how did you get these to work without error when the listing says they only work in:


Dome light, Front sidemarker,

Rear sidemarker, Parking,

Stop Tail, Rear Turn Signals,

License plate, Instrument Cluster

and Gauge Bulbs.


Did you splice in a resistor?

From the Ebay description, it said, "Built-in IC, No Warning Error" so hopefully it works b/c I just bought myself a pair last night

The resistors are already built-in yo! lol And on top of that, these won't even work for any of those places listed in that list of applications. The socket base is specific for the front turn signal socket. If i had seen them sooner, though, I would've gotten the ones that rb23lb got. those look WAY brighter. haha

yeah, sorry taking so long. Manufacturer ran into some sourcing parts issue for one of the flasher components. I should be getting my latest test batch in next week then will see how well the latest circuitry works.

The ones I got came with a separate piece that had a cord dangling off it that plugged into a bulky metal voltage adapter and the cord was too thick so the bulb housing would not fit back flush in the headlight...

I had to return them... may be brighter but not worth the sloppy installation and also I could only get one to work because the fit is so damn tight on the drivers side...

Good news everyone. Finally nailed down our design and have the right flaher IC unit. I will be carrying white and amber and will be priced at $35 shipped. Give me a couple weeks to get my first shipment in and we're ready to roll. Works great, no errors, and no hyperflashing

Can we see some preview pics/videos of it? Or is it a company secret?
