Has anyone installed them ?? If so how do you like them ? Looks like a good idea being able to switch from white light to yellow for fog .

I use switch back LEDs in my 16 F-350 for my parking/turn signal lights. I don’t select the color manually. When steady state mine are white and when they sense the flash they change to amber.

My issue is that there isn’t a traditional flasher, it’s a pulse sent from the computer. So I get a lot of non-linear effects....they stutter and miss a blink and sometimes blink while in between amber. I had my dealer disable bulb out using IDS so I didn’t have to use resistors.

It’s nice having 4 white lights forward (parking, low beam, fogs) and having them switch to amber is cool. But I’m thinking of moving to amber only LEDs. Had the company send me another set as I thought it was a defect but the new set still does it. And it seems worse if the headlights are on.

Not sure if there’s a switchback that lets you change the color from the cab.

No body has tried or heard of them ????
I've thought about them, the good ones seem pretty well built, I was looking at the VLED's brand. I had put all their bulbs in my Escalade and was very happy, just haven't gotten around to having the money to spend on it yet, wife is still thinking she wants new summer rims and tires.

I have been on the fence about them. I always wondered if the light output and beam pattern would match the OEM LED fog lights. I have seen a few on Amazon such as ALLA lighting...

I've had a pair in my 2004 EB for a couple years. Brightness and pattern wise they are fine. They can get out of sync occasionally (one is white, one is amber) if they are flashed too quickly.
When it occurs, switching the fogs off for a full second and back on gets them back to the same color. The bulbs apparently have a slightly different switch time, likely a component tolerance issue. It's a minor thing overall from cheap $18 OEDRO brand bulbs purchased on Amazon.
