Default New Switchback Technology! Corvette Mods Exclusive ON SALE $49.99

Many C5 owners have fell in love with LEDs. Corvette Mods was one of the first to bring LED applications to the Corvette community. Our newest LED switchback product consists of 39 LEDs per bulb WITH NEW TECHNOLOGY!

Our revised switchbacks are the first of their kind. Instead of 60 (30 white/30 amber) small 1210 SMDs per bulb, the new switchbacks have 39 2826 SMDs per bulb AND each LED has the ability to illuminate 2 different colors -AMBER & WHITE!

Others offering a similar "Version 2" style bulb still use the smaller led modules instead of the 1210 which require more solder joints. You can see, these are made much better and are the most reliable version out there.

What are the benefits?
First 100% Legal Switchback. When the blinkers are on the lights don't go white to amber! Purely an amber blinker feature!
Brighter - 39 LEDs for each color vs 30 on the old units
Smaller, nicer looking assembly
Each LED 1/3 larger for better dimensional output
New shielded technology


These advanced LED's allow you to have the amber color emitted during normal day driving, but when you turn on your headlights they switch over to white! This allows you to have a uniform look to your OEM HID headlights at night. Then, when the blinkers are triggered the bulb will switch to just amber to pass inspection!

Our Switchbacks carry the best warranty - LIFETIME!

Normally $74.99

FORUM PRICE $49.99

Gen 2 (Corvette Mods Exclusive)

Hi,

I would need the following: During normal operation I need them white (DRL option) and when I turn the need to light amber. Is this possible? I have the aftermarket clear turn signals with the black surrounding.
Thanks, Rouven.

No, switchbacks have to have a full time color with the lights on or off and they can't be the same color.

How difficult are they to install? (is it the same as changing the stock dlr bulb?)

I have the Original headlights+ bulbs- will it match?


Thanks

Got them today!

Installed in 20 minutes (without resistors yet)
Look great.

Advice to others

When you are replacing the stock bulb- there is a clip that must be squeezed in order to free the bulb assembly while twisting. (mine had to be twisted clockwise from above)

The LED lights take more force than the regular bulbs do. I used the grey part of the base to squeeze it into place.

Will put on the resistors this weekend.
