Yourledshop.com Running/Parking Light LED replacements PIC HEAVY
 
I got them in the mail today and installed them about an hour later. They fit perfect and look amazing!!!!! I must say this so far is one of my favorite mods. It really accents the shape of the light which is very unique to the Z... well and the craptacular (for the single man) but spectacular (for the family man) Maxima. I will post a DIY for the process which was a PITA I think I dropped the F bomb like 20 times per each side. Here are da pics! Also notice my camera seems to pick up images more clear with the stock lights for some reason. I suck donkey balls at taking pictures.

Very nice. Now with the led and hid being both on together, does it give off more whiteish blueish color? like how our stock gives off yellow because its 4300k. i wonder if the led makes it look more like 5000k.

No offense, but why not use the existing Yourledshop.com thread you created for the other lights?

Because that thread was for the 35$ kit that includes map, trunk, and LP lights.

So? Why not split each part into a separate thread then under that logic?

TARDCORE 02-02-2010 09:51 AM

I am really just trying to help out that website for sales from this site. The LEDs were $16 shipped

That's what he did?

Maybe you need some coffee.

EDIT: oh I see what you're doing. geez. you need to simma. the 35$ KIT has it's own thread. the corner lights then have their own thread. want more justification as to why they were split? MANY people are not comfortable getting into their wheel wells and messing with their very expensive headlights, while MOST will eff with their interior lights.

I was wondering if any of you guys have changed the small amber light next to the daytime running lights? I just changed my running lights too but, noticed the amber light and didn't know which socket was for that bulb. I want my headlights to be all white.

I haven't yet, will be though. Want to get rid of the reflectors and go all white. I want to find orange/amber LEDs for my blinker too. The orange-painted incandescent bulb makes it look orange even when off and I'm not a fan of that.

I want to do that, too - I was told LED blinkers would require a load resistor, or else the LED would spazz and blink rapidly.

Yeah that makes sense. I've had to make some mods before when rewiring blinkers.
