LED Turn Signal Bulbs for 4GS!!
Anyone know where to get led turn signal bulb for the 4gs. I would like them white as close as possible to the led's that are on the vehicle now or even the headlight color. The orange is kind of ugly to me. Please give me guidance. Thanks

Are you talking about the front or rear?

Here is what I have for both front & rear. It's amber but more like orange and super bright:

For while color go with this one:

You have to add a pair of 3ohm load resistor since the 4GS blinker control can't be replace.

Here the link for the load resistor. You need 1 each side:

I use the amber because I want to keep it like stock. I try the white in front but don't like it since it don't match the DRL. After market LED more blue than OEM LED. Use the white in rear then you get the same orange turn signal.
When using amber it more like BMW's turn signal color. It's bright orange.
This is what I'm currently have right now:

It got 5 LED total, rate only 4 star but it's brighter than some other 5 star IMO. 4 led firing to reflector and 1 front projector firing so really sparking bright. That's why they ran out now.
When you order from v-leds, remember google for coupon code or check their facebook . Up to 20% discount. Check the review for each item to make sure you get the brightest one.
It 's easy to install. I mount the resistor inside the rear quarter panel using double side tape, below the tail light. There are plenty of room in there. Just open the plastic cap cover to change the bulb and you will figure out.
I'll take some pix tomorrow.

instead of tap into the original harness you could buy this and leave the original wire alone, i prefer this method.

The 5K I didn't get one yet so I'm not sure. There are two things that concern me about the 5K: The size diameter kinda big and long and there no projector LED forward so you don't get the beam out far. Just go for it right now and you can return for exchange since the other one is back order.

The pros: got the projector on the top and 4 firing LEDs to the housing so very bright
The con: expensive but you can look for 20% discount coupon code on their facebook.
Currently I'm using the 15W HID for reverse and it's like you having the headlight in the taillight. But it take 3-5 second to warm up and no melting housing or wiring so far. I have this on 3 different vehicle.

There are 2 problem:
First the socket too big and thick so it won't fit the GS housing. I used the Dremel to trim down to get it fit and then the resistor won't cure hyper flashing. I order two set of LED decoder one 7440 and one 7443 from 2 seller but both didn't work.
So NO go for led decoder.
