    Is there a halogen bulb that’s really bright? I think the LED bulbs I installed is causing hyperflash, when I turn the turn signals on and it’s driving me crazy. I’m about to go back to halogen but looking for a good one.

    You need a resistor. If you want good quality and bright leds for turn signals, many of us have the Vleds V6 Tritons.

    Sorry, I forgot to add that I already have those. Do you think they went out?
    Or can they go bad? Didn’t have them that long, before they started hyperflashing. Almost a year. Don’t think that’s that long for a resistor to go bad, but I’m not at all an expert

    They are the V6 Tritons with the black box resistor? Front or rear? Is the front and rear signals all led?

    Sorry for not being clear. I already have some resistors. Everything was fine for a while, then one randomly started hyperflashing then it was okay, then the other side did it, but then it worked fine. Now both left and right headlight c ring hyperflash when using turn signals. Instead of it being sequential, it’s like a rapid blink; now. It’s only the fronts that I’ve changed. I swapped the regular SR5 headlights (non DRL) housing to some that have the DRL and have the sequential turn signal. I took out the halogen bulb that came with the new headlights and installed a Lastfit LED bulb. Hope this is more clear

    thinking about just going back to halogen because not sure how much more I can take knowing something is not working like it should. :annoyed:

    LED headlamps/fogs; interior footlamps.
    I use LEDs everywhere Except the turnsignals. Yet if you want some of those SuperBright LEDs has them - not cheap.

    I am using Vosla brand halogens in my Camry. They are impressive but it’s an H11 bulb in a totally different housing so I can’t fully compare. I tried the LED route and went back to halogens, worth it for me. Vosla is a legit European bulb.

    They have these in an H4: https://www.ebay.com/itm/176359088570?_skw=vosla+h4&itmmeta=01JFH19G5XAHKXQ8WN7TTE0PFJ&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwHoV3kP08IDx+KZ9MfhVJKlzBAYDwqhqqmXAFZd4l9A5PC%2FlVCp5xqxtg1ik6ZnayIcIm3FLa07et6GSJg5HI41tQWEtJyKg9biyFOwyXrUE+TmZ3nsCJs+4QZNB7CQgqCDlX--SbWdkaK2R2VE0098wC+os6wVMF8Acvmquz53Yvf5N9+SWoXs+v9PDIIVPNAwIXQUYZ9Q4TAVPMeFmIBZNPPrCrC8RkirGR5AFnBmUZZmqCvGzddM0+Q3cpknBEg%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABlBMUJSDpqH8ZA
