LED DRLs
So who has done this conversion with switchbacks?
What did you use that actually works?
I'm having flickering issues with mine as well as both flashers blink when I turn on the turn signal.

You could wire a hidden incandescent bulb in series.
In several states then turn signal can still be white.

Bigsapper, who did you buy your switchback harness from? Also, have you already installed the anti-hyperflash harness?
Pretty sure the OP isn't looking to "band-aid" his problem. He would obviously like the LED switchbacks to function as they should.

Agree got my bulbs,switchback harness and hyper flash from sharp light. Had similar issues before switching everything over. Be sure to use a little dielectric grease when you install the bulbs. Mine now work flawlessly.

you checked your ground connections?
I tried switchbacks and I find that many eBay bulbs, despite the price are inconsistent. Mine started flickering so I went back to Sylvania amber Zevos and they are bulletproof

I'm guessing ground too...
I went with the radioflyer switchbacks, clear lenses including the led strips and hyperflash harness. It was a fun project and they look great really updating the look of the car in a subtle way. Also, with the switchback bulbs and harness included, they don't function like some of the cheaper versions.
some cheaper ones flash: white/amber/white/amber
The radioflyer kit is solid white for DRL.
flashing is: white goes off
amber/off/amber/off/amber/off
white goes back on
