So based on what Diode said then you do have the wrong bulbs because they still are not out yet??? But I do see what you are taking about they seem to be on there website so I am also confused on what you bought.

Our switchbacks have a timer built into the bulb to prevent the white from ever flashing with the blinkers. As many of you many already know, white blinkers are illegal.

If you have any questions about which size your vehicle needs, or would like more information about the load resistors that have to be spliced in, please send me an email: contact@diodedynamics.com or feel free to call: (314) 205-3033

I often miss posts on some of these threads, but I will always work with you to make sure you are taken care of.

Thanks everyone,

Upon further inspection, I found that my DRL's/fog lights are also not functioning now that I've installed these bulbs. I returned everything back to stock, and everything worked fine. So... HELP PLEASE

Ok just to clear everything up, they do not have them in stock. There website has had problems, but Nick has made it right so no worries at all! As soon as they get them in stock nick will let us know. Diode dynamics is an awesome company, but sometimes problems slip through the cracks. It's all good though! Thanks Nick and diode dynamics!!!

Glad to hear all has been cleared up! Although I have not dealt directly with Nick, I have purchased a few items from DD and have been very happy with their quality and quick shipments. If these new switchbacks for RS Camaros work as I hope they do, I will be one of the first to order.

I am really looking forward to providing the updates and videos when the new RS switchbacks arrive. I've been anxiously waiting for the new products and I'm confident you all will love them.

It's a simple upgrade, but it makes a big difference in your Camaro's appearance.

1) It is absolutely ridiculous that it's December and you're still stating that you'll have the RS switchbacks "shortly", when you said they'd be available in a couple of weeks back in July. 5 months = "a few delays"?

2) Based on what I've read previously, and on how my car behaves, the RS model uses the "fog lights" (not the turn signals) as the Daytime Running Lights (DRLs). On the other hand, the non-RS model uses the turn signals as the DRLs.

Switch backs for 2013 1LS? I want to remove the amber lights, and just have them flash amber when in use, but clear when looking at the car with no lights on.

Do you have a link for this? I will be replacing my headlights and would like to do this along with it.

Subscribed to see what's up for the front turn signals of the RS package.

I will have the promised updates on the RS switchbacks as soon as they become available.

We are developing in-depth guides and videos to make the installation as easy as possible for Camaro owners. I realize they were expected much sooner, but we don't want to rush the product without having every resource available to clear up any confusion.

Simple plug and play. It's quicker using the DIY video than waiting for a phantom part.
