I tried this on a customers car. Not a very smart thing to do btw. Wired everything to the parking lights (except the amber wire which went to the blinker of course) and now we are noticing the switchback is not working so well. When the blinker is on, instead of shutting off the white completely it flashes white and amber back and forth. Also there are issues when you turn off the blinker. Sometimes it switches back to white immediately, other times there is a delay, and sometimes no lights at all. Not very happy with this product at the moment. Calling the company to see what they say.

I would recommend against this mod until we find solution to the switching. I spoke with DatsunFTW this morning. He is using a LED Turn signal bulb and the switch doesn't seem to work correctly. I am using stock light bulb and it works. But starting to stick on one or the other color. Hard to see all this when your driving.

Like Nut_N_Much said, the amber strip of the assembly is a bit buggy. I tried it out on my own Z to make sure everything worked and the amber was the only light lighting up with the turn signal. and this was with an LED turn signal bulb. When I put in the factory bulb, the flashing was not synchronized.
So as a way around it, I told my friend I would only leave the white strip wired in and leave the amber alone. Unless we hear something new from the company, I wouldn't trust the amber just yet. But I really like the way these turned out. I am tempted to try the same on my Z but I have a whole big project for my own that will involve some "reshaping" of the housing with some nice 3D printing involved ![]() 10974452_10204821413509570_6750185517596665638_o by datsunpride, on Flickr
