Since I already have the harness - can I buy the kit without it?

Your products are simply the best, Richard!

How much for just the harness and do you have switch backs for both the forward and side facing bulbs (I already have the clear lens)?

Thanks

Damn that is sweet. I heard them bulbs are a SOB to replace. I think I will buy this kit in the near future just to get the LED's and they look very cool.

Many thanks all The video don't quite capturen just how outstanding these LED DRLs look in person. But it sure beats trying to explain how the Switchbacks work

The Bypass Harness is $49.95 + $6.50 shipping The Switchabacks are not available as 194's (reflector area). The 194 is a single filament bulb that is not in-line with a flasher anyway, so there would be no point to it. They're only available for the front of the DRL.

Yes, but in case you're considering using them in your OEM DRLs, I wouldn't advise doing so. Due to the defused lenses of the stock DRLs, the LEDs wouldn't illuminate as bright as standard bulbs. Now if you already have custom DRLs with Ribbed or Clear lenses, you're alright

If you have thin to regular arms, it's a chinch. If you have Ham-Hocks for arms, it would be easier from the underside
