Default White LED Daytime Running Lights/Turn Signals

Replace the amber DRLs on your C6 with our white LED replacements!

Advantages of using LEDS
LEDS use less power than stock bulbs and give you that nice clean look.

Unlike the stock bulbs they do not get near as hot so there are no worries of burning housings or sockets.

Hyperflash (rapid flashing of the turn signals) will be experienced when you replace with leds. We have load resistors that will fix this (you can add a set in the options). Most of my C6 customers actually like the faster flashing.

$25 per set (2) shipped for the 39 led towers

$31 per set (2) shipped for the 60 led towers

Order here http://www.shop.jwmotoring.com/produ...0&categoryId=6

Installation Instructions

Amber on the left (of pic) white on the right


Comes with 1 year warranty and your satisfaction is guaranteed (don't like them return them)

You can expect your blinker to blink a little faster than stock. Here is a video of the hyperflashing

I told you what I tell any customer that can't figure it out at first. Press firm on the bulb without breaking it. It will go in.

We've sold hundreds of these and they were tested before we offered them. They fit.

You didn't ask for help you asked for a refund and I sent the address for that as well.

Anyone have issues getting these LED bulbs to fit?

I noticed that mine is about a 1mm fatter at the base of the bulb versus the stock bulb where it is inserted into the socket.

I'm afraid if I exert any more force on the bulbs it will break. Also, I'm worried that because of the size variance if the bulbs do go in, I won't be able to take them out.

We tested the bulbs before offering them. Not each bulb. They're all made the same.

I offered you advice from my previous experience with these (installed a set on my own ride) and a refund. I'm not sure what else to do for you.

How much are the resistors?

Are they easy to install?

Thanks

So let me get this right, if we exsert more force slowly like you state they should not brake but fit in, but if they do we get refunded correct?

It states availability is back ordered. You out?

This was exactly my concern what happens if the bulb breaks while trying to force it into the socket? The vendor told me in order to get a refund the bulbs needed to be in good condition with no broken pieces.

I did break one personal rule of mine and that is never to install anything during the week after work. I'm usually worn out and not in the best of moods after a long day of work in the OEM Automotive Industry.

Anyways, today I decided to give it one more shot. I used a hand towel and placed it over the bulb and forced the bulb into the socket. It is a very tight fit but it finally "snapped" in.

I need to change that qty on the site. I have plenty.

If you break the bulbs we can't refund you. The force I'm talking about is hard to explain, but if you do it right the bulb will not break.

Glad you got it. Now you know what I meant the other night.

I don't have a price yet. They'll probably be around $10 for 2.

They're easy to install. I'll try to find the info on installing them when I get back to my computer.

Thanks. And these do not scorch or singe the factory parts?

Are these also brighter (emit more light) than the stock units?

Not at all. They don't even get hot. That's the main advantage really. Especially in the C5 world where I mainly sell these. Those hot DRL bulbs crack the lenses and allow water in. I don't think the C6 has that problem though. Your lenses are a little more durable.

They are not brighter than stock. They will produce enough light to be seen, but not brighter than stock.

I'll send you that info as soon as I find it. Gotta do some searching

I had that problem with my C5. Went through three sets of marker housings before I figured out what was causing it. Let me know when you get the resistors in and what the price for a set of lights/resistors would be.

Yeah they do need a bit of a push on most C6s.

Thanks for your feedback and business
