Thumbs up Diode Dynamic Stage 2/Switchbacks/LED Fogs

I just want to say I am more than happy with the products and customer service I have received from Diode Dynamic. I only had one problem with one of my fog lights (the passenger side was too blue). I notified Paul and within a week my replacement was received and they now match perfectly.

The stage 2 LEDs are super bright, but not blinding, which is exactly what I wanted.







The switchback turn signals look MUCH better than the stock amber bulbs. They're a nice white/bluish color and switch to the exact same amber color as my turn signals on the mirror. Looks great.







I went with the Hi-Power White LED Fog lights and they look like amazing. They don't light up the road as well as the stock fog lights do, but I only wanted them for appearance.

These pictures were taken before the replacement fog light was sent. The passenger side is no longer that blue.








NOTE: The reflection on the ground in this picture of the bulb on the DRIVER side is an accurate representation of these fog lights.


Once again, very good products and very good customer service. Definitely will be doing business with Paul at Diode Dynamics again in the future!

haha no no, I was being a smart ass.. of course my DD dome lights are off when I close the door.. the only reason I could see them still being slightly on is.. not being fitting in correctly? dno

LOL @ 2P Co-Op. I'm still a huge fan of the old Contra series and Double Dragon on NES and SNES. Ahh, the good ole days Btw the lights look sweet. I know we're KDM and not JDM, but I still think I'll end up getting yellow hid fogs and bright white headlights. Keep up the clean look!

Hahaha so true.

Yes, I believe his LED strip is outside the housing. I'm pretty sure they make aftermarket OEM style headlights with the strip inside, but I think they're kinda pricey. Not sure

Which LED strips did you use? How did you go about mounting them?

Question

I know this is a decently old thread, but I have that same problem. If I leave my dome lights on "Door mode" (The door switch is on) when I close the door you'll notice they are slightly on(I mean minutely, barely noticeable) I'm thinking that's the car wiring preloading the light for when the door opens, or having the switch depressed allows a small leak of electricity through in order to have the lights power up when the door opens, and because normal bulbs wouldn't operate at such a low voltage, it wouldn't make a difference then, but since LEDs require significantly less power to light up. Maybe this small insignificant voltage lights them up a bit. I have stage 2 Blue LEDs for the dome lights btw. Anybody solve this problem? It's not a big deal since it's hardly noticeable unless you really look at it and compare. But I would imagine it might shorten the life span of the LEDs which yes I know is very very long anyway.

Edit - Also, do you recommend the stage 2 over the stage 1 on the switchbacks? Is it worth the price difference? I want them to be bright! But I'd rather not pay $70 for some LEDs just yet, I'd rather put in a custom module by flyryde at that point.
