Default 6k whites led turn signals from vled. Brociouz!!!!

Ok guys I ordered The 6k bulbs for my turn signals. I got all red tail lights on my 06 is350 and no clear lenses. So when my turn signals blink then will it be red or white? I ordered these for my rear turn signals.

The stock bulbs are just plain bulbs and not red. So if you got stock tails or with red-outs, then it'll be amber or red if you have red-outs. But if you got IS-F tails, then it's white. You got a load resistor or LED flasher?

Are you sure that's 6K? What's listed in the title and description in the URL saids 5K!

Without a load resister or a modified turn relay, you're going to hyper flash.

Yikes, so many exclamation points next to my username haha. Looks like everyone here has you covered but (a) the link you have is for 5000K, not 6000K LEDs, (b) if you have redouts your turn signals will still be red, just brighter, and (c) without a load resistor or electronic flasher your turn signals will blink much faster (hyper flash).

You can also modify your stock flasher to fix the hyper flash!

There is a DIY on the VLEDS website - I did it to my flasher. Super easy with a dremel tool.
