Default V-Led Switchback install

OK, installed the V-Led 6k Switchbacks this morning, took 45 minutes for the pass side, mostly figuring stuff out, i.e. mounting etc, and 15-20 for the driver side, pass side is tight, driver side is wide open,,,I did not connect the dimmer

I removed the tire on each side for easy access, short story = no hyperflash AND I have Eagle Eye turn signals in the rear.


Since the V-Led box gets hot, I put this DEI insulation onto the sidewall and mounted the V-Led box onto it.

I installed the capacitors I bought from V-Led, and there is no hyperflash, we drove Friday from INDY to Bowling Green KY and Saturday back and there were no issues, so I'm pleased
