Switchback LEDs Take 2

there are some subtle social diversities between the two environments

EDIT, please ignore , wrong thread

Are the bulb holders an exact fit to the bike?
Unlike Mikey's first Take 1 when he had to wrap some tape around it.

Ah! I went with option 1, those with resistor and rubber plug!
Original lamp holder was 26mm, so built up new lamp with insulation tape till 26mm, then ridge in rubber still there after taped up, holds a treat!


Below is pic of the original lamp holder, tabs are different to ebay listed part but reckon it should be able to be modded to match!

Bulb holder looks like one in picture but with 4 tabs , cut 2 of that aren't the fit and away you go

Morning peeps! So I finally got all the bits n bibs via fleabay to do this. When I connect the LEDs off the bike (on the bench in a mock set up), both yellow and white segments light up. I presume that the flasher relay is what causes the white segment to know to switch off ?   I want to know it all works before getting all drastic with the plastics!!

Cheers as ever

Hi bigbad, can you simulate it by keeping the pos feed on the white lights and make and break the feed to the Amber leds?

Helloooo!
In short...no.
With or without the bulb holder, power to white terminal only = white lights, yellow terminal only = yellow lights and both terminals = both yellow and white lights :-(

Booooooo - have I fubar'd somewhere ?

I have feedback from the seller...

"Dear friend,

We know it may not meet your expectations.But we have low profit in eBay, Because we also suffer loss, we paid the shipping fee and the eBay final value fee.
You can keep it and do not need to return.

We suggest to refund half to you and you keep the item to save your time and money and you do not leave us any negative or neutral feedback, is it ok?"

Is it me or is that bang out of order? Has anybody else found this when receiving the wrong bulbs?  Does anybody know where else sells them (lessons learnt at a cost of a tube of smarties I guess!!)
Cheers

Ok I admit defeat. 3rd set of bulbs (last ones cost £30 the pair) all the plastics off the bike, wired it up in "mock up" fashion. No hyperflash, white on running lights, indicators when they should be on, but no turney-off the DRL's. I'm going to the pub now to sulk

Has anyone tried wiring this up using the Live lead from the Town lights to the indicator Earth, I've used this option to good effect on installs on other vehicles to make outline lights flash with the indicator.
