Well, put them in and they won't flash while parking lights are on.. Parking lights on with turn signal on = steady amber. Parking lights off with turn signal on = flashing amber. That's gonna be an issue.

That may be due to funky wiring in the ferd....try them in the tb.

Yeah, I figure it's either that or it just works funny. I only tried them on one side though so I need to try the other side then if that don't work TB is next in line.

Tried putting the switchbacks in the TB...couldn't. The socket is made for offset tabs on the sides and the switchbacks have centered tabs and I wasn't gonna file them down. Figured out what the deal is though.. The way the ferd is set up, when an LED is in there it alternates power to the whole bulb so, flash on=12v flash off =9v-ish and the 5630's don't respond to that. You can barely see a flicker if you're up close.

Eh, they're fine lol. Imagine that the flasher relay quit and when you turn the signal on it just stays on and doesn't flash so you use the turn signal stalk like a toggle switch to make it flash...yeah, that's what I'm gonna do lol.

Here's a HDR pic with my HIDs, LED fog lights, and switchbacks on and one of the switchbacks. Anybody else notice a "ghost" light when taking pictures of bright lights that floats around when you move the camera and is very obvious in the picture? If not, observe mine lol.

Yup lol. It's dumb but it's not worth going back to amber 5050s because I'll have to buy new ones and try to sell these.
I know you like the Audi style switchbacks, but if you're looking for new ones, mine work great, you'd probably want to add a resistor though, I didn't only because I don't mind Hyperflash honestly

Audi uses switchback style signals? Lol that's not why I want them, I just want them because it's different. But no need for resistors, I have an LED flasher relay :yes: I tried resistors first but they didn't work. But I'm fine with them for now, might not be in a few days though, idk lol.
