Default Change to V-LEDS

I was wondering if anyone had changed out their turn signals or brake lights with the LEDs from V-LEDS. I was thinking about it and wanted to get people's opinions.

i changed the back turn signals, reverse lights, puddle lamps, interior lights to LED - but not from VLEDS. i like everything except the turn signals because it's bluish, i'd rather have yellow led's.

I wouldn't change the turn signals due to the hyperflash it creates which can get u a ticket. u will need a module to make the turn signals blink like the stock bulbs. the brake light i didn't want to mess with because that is very important for the drivers behind u especially at night. for ur safety and for other drivers i would suggest to leave them alone. if u want to change them it is ur car. good luck.

^^^^ he's right, i have an additional part to prevent the hyperflash for the turn signals.

but when they go out, i'll go back to stock. every other car on my block in long island are sporting these lights also.

turn signals can be fixed by placing resistors..

Cool, thanks guys. I will probably look into the turn signals with the modules and probably stay away from the brake lights. Will probably change out the reverse lights though.
