LED Switchbacks Replace LED Amber
A few pics of my "switch" to switchbacks this afternoon. Also lubed up the golden rods as I plan to adjust my ACAs later tonight when it gets dark.
I think the White LED matches up pretty well with the 4300 temp HID fogs/lows. I love the "dusk" look when I have the fogs and white corners on.

What I found surprising last night during my initial run was how brite the white switchbacks are by themselves. Combined with my other HID upgrades I feel as though I now have a 4-step lighting system;
1.) LED White Switchbacks
2.) LED White Switchbacks with HID Fogs
3.) LED White Switchbacks with HID Fogs with HID Lows
4.) LED White Switchbacks with HID Fogs with HID Lows with Halogen Highs - Man does that light up the night! I tried that on a remote road last night and it seemed like I could see for miles...
