installing led turn signals

asphyxxed · Jan 20, 2007

if i get l.e.d. turn signals i should get the same color bulb as the lens right? they say that looks better...plus, if i install them will i need electronic flashers? if so is it a 3 pin or some other type? can't find what kind the 2000 accord takes...

thanks guys..

when you buy the LED turn signal bulb, the color bulb is going to be clear. the light of the bulb must be red or amber, which is the legal color here in Oklahoma but i'm sure it's the same to any state so i would keep it red or amber. also, you don't need anything else. the bulb will flash quicker everytime you turn your signal on. i have a red one on my accord and i love it because it's bright! look up "LED 7440" on ebay.

I don't think it would be legal to have red turn signals on the front...but I may be wrong

if you dont like the fast blinking you can buy led resistors. they're like 10 dollars on ebay.

yeah load resistors are recommended..you can get them cheaper on websites than ebay..or even radio shack

is this hard to do? do the led's plug right in or do you have to modify

The load resistors tap into the turn single wire.

Is there an actual DIY on this? I would like to get led turn signals as well ^^

shavedaccord · May 8, 2007

really..no DIY is required..the load resistors come with wire taps..all you do is tap it into your positive wire on the turn signal

would you link me an example of what led to buy? I'm just a little confused on how to make the led stay in the housing.
