Default LED Turn Signals - Relay

Hey everybody,

I want to switch my signals to LED (Front and Back) but because my car is still under warranty, I don't want to wire in resistors. Has anyone found or used a LED relay???

I know IJDMTOY has them for the second gen IS but I'm having trouble finding it for the 3IS.

(2014 Lexus IS250 F-SPORT)

I got the 7440 error free LED turn signal from ijdmtoy for the front and back. They come with that bypass crap so you don't need to worry about nothing, works great too

Are there any comparison pics? OEM vs LED replacement turn signals?

I am currently using these for my front turn signals in my GS. They work great and no additional Resistor or Decoder box needed; just plug it in. This is ideal so when you service your car at the dealer, they wouldn't know you're using them.

So just to be clear these LED bulbs will work on IS 250 2015 Canadian Version? Single HID headlights? Can you shed some light, I'm interested on these if they could work on my IS.

As always, thank you!!

Im not sure if it'll work on Canadian cars, probably will. You could just email ijdmtoy and ask them. They usually respond within a day or two

check out the video in my sig. note NOT ALL LEDs are created equal. most are dim and suck. you have take note of WHICH LEDs you are installing and their overall design. Don't forget the housing you are installing them in is designed for bulbs that emit light in ALL directions. some LEDs are not only weak, they emit light uni-directionally. So you'll get REALLY poor output which can be dangerous.

Default Led Turn Signal Lexus GS350 2013 Relay FLASHER

But but if you installed 2 pairs one in the front and one in the back it doesn’t hyperflash? Also I’ve heard about led flasher relay, but I don't exactly where is located, maybe in the cluster panel? It easy to install some led flasher relay or its not recommended? Thanks

I'm pretty sure this car doesn't have a relay. Older cars from what I remember are the ones that used relays.

You can find the same bulbs on aliexpress for half the price with the same functions(ordered and tested for over a month and works really well, super bright as well). I think the relay from what I have read was that it's integrated into the gauge cluster.

The relay is integrated, so it's not a physical relay you can unplug and plug an LED one in. The resistors are the way to go.

Anyone try these? 50W 6 ohm 9-14VDC 16 gauge.
