Default New Switchback Technology! Corvette Mods Exclusive ON SALE $49.99

Many C5 owners have fell in love with LEDs. Corvette Mods was one of the first to bring LED applications to the Corvette community. Our newest LED switchback product consists of 39 LEDs per bulb WITH NEW TECHNOLOGY!

Our revised switchbacks are the first of their kind. Instead of 60 (30 white/30 amber) small 1210 SMDs per bulb, the new switchbacks have 39 2826 SMDs per bulb AND each LED has the ability to illuminate 2 different colors -AMBER & WHITE!

Others offering a similar "Version 2" style bulb still use the smaller led modules instead of the 1210 which require more solder joints. You can see, these are made much better and are the most reliable version out there.

What are the benefits?
First 100% Legal Switchback. When the blinkers are on the lights don't go white to amber! Purely an amber blinker feature!
Brighter - 39 LEDs for each color vs 30 on the old units
Smaller, nicer looking assembly
Each LED 1/3 larger for better dimensional output
New shielded technology


These advanced LED's allow you to have the amber color emitted during normal day driving, but when you turn on your headlights they switch over to white! This allows you to have a uniform look to your OEM HID headlights at night. Then, when the blinkers are triggered the bulb will switch to just amber to pass inspection!

Our Switchbacks carry the best warranty - LIFETIME!

Normally $74.99

FORUM PRICE $49.99

Gen 2 (Corvette Mods Exclusive)

Does a "rapid-blink" resistor needed to be added for proper function?

Yes, you will need the resistors if the hyperflash bothers you

Got them from Corvettemods a few weeks ago and they are great. Brighter than the old switchbacks I had and is a better bulb for signaling with your headlights on as the blink is amber on/off only then back to white when the directional is off which alerts other cars better that you directional is on than the other switchbacks that switch amber/white for the directional. If you currently have switchbacks you'll know what I mean. Oh and by the way I got them fast and they come with a great warranty, great vendor to deal with.

I had the very first gen of switchbacks a few years ago. One of them shorted out or melted or something (I can't remember, but there was a problem). I've been running stock bulbs since then. Have all the bugs been worked out with these? I would assume so with that warranty.

I've never heard of that before! I don't think the Gen 1 you purchased were from us either.

These are 100% guaranteed to do what they say and last a lifetime!

With the headlights on and the switchback LEDS putting out the white light is there any more projected white light onto the road?
