Has anyone gone LED crazy on their Outlander? If so what did you replace with LEDs and which bulbs did you use?

 

I have a '13 Outlander GT S-AWD & replaced the following:

- DRL w/ these 1156 LEDs. The polarities are reversed in the '13 MY DRL sockets so I had to get these w/o going through the headache of swapping wires in the connector since LEDs are polarity sensitive.

- Front side amber marker bulbs w/ these 194 amber LEDs

- Reverse bulbs w/ these 7440 Cool White LEDs

- All interior bulbs w/ Warm White LEDs + 3175 base adapters

Still in the process of replacing all the signal light bulbs w/ LEDs but need to figure out where I can mount the heat sink for the resistors to prevent hyper flashing.

 

I hear when you install LED bulbs in turning signal lights you get Hyper Flash, just wanted to know if Hyper Flash is illegal?

 

I have been told that instead of fitting resistors you can change the flasher unit,but I am still trying to locate the flasher unit. Can anyone help with this ?

 

@SERPENTOR: not sure if hyper flash is illegal. but you might want to check with your local vehicle codes.

@Stevo 53: I believe the newer Outlanders does not come w/ a relay (at least my '10 & '13 MY didn't) where you can just swap out to prevent hyper flash. instead, the signal lamps are controlled by ETAC. You might want to search the forum for more detail explanations.

 

What are the best brand and places to buy the LED bulbs?

 

Which interrior LED Kit would you go with?:

1. Mitsubishi Outlander LED Interior Package (2007-2013)

2. http://www.amazon.com/LEDpartsNow-Mi...d+interior+kit

3. Premium SMD LED Interior Lights Package For Mitsubishi Outlander

 

subscribed... I want to change the turning light but I want to know HOw to prevent the hyper flash

 

I have seen alot of other cars with Hyper Flash is it illegal?

 

Hi All, sorry for the delayed reply.

@SERPENTOR: I didn't buy a "kit" per se. I bought them individually as listed in my post #2. As far as hyper flash being illegal, you might want to check with your local vehicle codes. For me, it's more of an annoyance.

@skirsman: To prevent hyper flash, you'll need to install resistors. See here for more info F.A.Q.
