Review on SYLVANIA 1156 Amber LED Bulb Pack of 2 by Ashton Dahmer

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Turn signal problem with bulbs

When I installed these bulbs as front turn signal/marker lights on a 2003 Accord they were not as bright as incandescent bulbs. However, they are significantly brighter as turn signals. But the bulbs exhibited a phenomenon called "hyperflashing" even though bulbs were still installed in the taillights. These bulbs need load resistors so they don't work like strobe lights. These items are cheap but I didn't want to go that route. I have sent the bulbs back and will either stick with incandescent or buy LED bulbs with built in resistors. ($$$)

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • old
