It's not a issue with lights per say, but voltage fluctuation.
They do not flicker when engine is off.
I thought about adding 12V voltage stabilizers in the circuit, but keep forgetting, plus flickering is very minor....

Is it connected and grounded properly? I don't recall the procedure, but there were quite a few steps. Mine have zero flickering and were bought from carID. I believe they had a 6 month or 1 year warranty.

Anybody know if the CF18 SmartTap that Diode Dynamics sells would negate the need to use resistors when installing the Spec-D tails?
I already got one for my front LED turn signal bulbs (and for the tap-to-flash feature), so I'm hoping it'll do double duty.

The SmartTap is an LED compatible flasher. It will take care of any hyperflash brought about by switching to LED.

Thanks!

I saw them release on aliexpress not too long ago. I believe its made by Vland. Ebay has them too but only saw the smoke ones. IMO these are probably the best looking after tail for 2is. Waiting to see it on the car before I jump in on it.
