    John!!! I think I found a solution. So simple! Why not tap into your REAR turn signal?! Duh! Run a positive wire on each side from the rear to the front

    That's a good idea I have just been using them without using the DRL just going with the white halo on with the truck start. Out of curiosity which wire would I need to tap in the rear??? Is there a specific color or is it pretty obvious? Do I need to go all the way back or is there a way to access the loom earlier?

    we did it last night. There is a harness under the truck you could tap into but i ended up just running the wire all the way back to the tail light along side the frame and stock harness. Tapped into the Green wire in the tail light each side.

    Like a charm on my neighbors truck and when you do it this way, no hyper flash so no need for resistors. I will say if i ever get the money to do a retrofit on my truck, NO LED MULTI COLOR HALOS!!! holy crap that has been a pain in the ass!! haha..

    They're cool but I don't want it on my truck. It's a little too much for my taste

    Agreed.. and for the price, not worth possibly gettn a ticket.. my neighbor got pulled over yesterday because he clicked the white but it had a blueish tint to them.. the cop was cool and let him go with a warning so we had to program the white better in them so its was more white...

    It's hard to get pure white with rgb halos. There are rgbw modules for specific cars but no halos yet. Not that I know of. Switchback functions are awesome and TRS' switchback v2's amber are even brighter! My next set :drool:

    ya after about 30 Min of trying we got it close but deff not pure white. He likes the switchback but idk which ones he got but they look good. This was the blue he was playing with last night after we got the white figured out. He had me disconnect the middle turn signals and DTRL but he said hes going to re connect them if people cant see the Switchbacks as his turn signals

    retrofit H1 projectors, led switchbacks, led halos, led running lights, led light bar, 6k hid headlights and fogs

    thread is dead but I have a question, some may answer...

    So when the head lights are on "lowbeam on" and you switch your turn signals on say to the left "switchback on", the amber turn signals are on. From my understanding the Lowbeam head light for the driver side turn off while the passenger side stays on, then when turn signals are turned off the driver side headlight turns back on.
    Is there away to wire the system to keep both headlights on while using the sxb turn signal?
