Custom LED Rear Turn Signals (Video)
So i decided to try something out... its probly been done but either way i thought it was cool...
i switched out my rear yellow turn signal bulbs for Amber LED's... each LED "bulb" has about 19 high power LED's on it... however, when i put them in, they wouldnt blink and i was getting "rear turn signal left and right out" on the display... the soultion to this problem was to wire up a load resistor in parallel with each side... the problem was fixed and it works great. its not so bright during the day but at night its pure yellow and it has that "pop" when it turns on.
The video definatly does not give it justice... the colors are much more vivid and the pop from the lights turning on and off is pretty sweet

maybe it is cause it is a b6, but i don't see anything special, maybe a little faster than stock blinking
i like some of the cars that come with led tails from the factory, with like a million leds going around in a circle then more in the middle for another light......... meh, glad you like it
