I saw that the same company linked in your description have a resister-free option. Are these new and compatible with the 2023 wrx? 7440/7443: GTR LIGHTING CARBIDE 2.0 (RESISTOR-FREE)

Probably will work since it's the same size but if you dom't have enough resistance or an aftermarket flasher relay, it's probably going to hyperflash the moment you turb on your blinker. Even kine hyperflash after a few minutes with resistor in front and back. Though 95%+ of the time I don't need to turn on my blinker on for that long so it's not much of an issue.

I put switch back leds up front and added 6 ohm resistors but it still hyperflashes. Connections are solid and I don’t have any leds in the rear so idk what’s going on but I hate it.

Hey thanks for the video. Do we need a resistor for these?

Yes. People have reported hyperflash issue with these bulbs without resistors. I have resistors for my Tail as Turn harness so I believe that's why mine is not hyperflashing.

Update: even with the Tail as Turn harness with rear resistor, mine still hyperflashes if I have the turn signal on for a long time (over 3 mins or so)

Nope. Only each side of the back as part of the Tail as Turn harness. Doesn't hyperflash under normal traffic lights. Does eventually hyperflash if has signal on for a very long time.

@@TechnicalMechanical i have the same setup as you, but mine hyperflashes right away which is annoying, I turned the tail turns into reverse, I'm not sure how to correct this problem as the front turns have 3 wires and I have no idea which is which 8(

These require that the amber stays on during normal use (before replacement) as a fog or drl for the white to stay on correct? If the turn signal light is dedicated to just turn signal, this won't work... Or will it?
@TechnicalMechanical

Correct, you need the original version (before replacement) to stay on during normal use for this to work. Or else it won't have power going to it without the turn signal being on. There might be some plug and play harness out there that provides drl power though for it to stay on all the time.

Hey I installed the switchbacks and a tail as turn! Im still getting hyperflash though, any fixes?

Do you have LED turn signals on the front also? If so, that's probably what's causing it and you'd need addtional resistors on the front.

I put switch backs in just the front and my eyesight stop working do I need to add switch backs to front, to the taillights and add a resistor for it work properly?

I just got mine and installed just like you did. Plug and Play installation. However the bulbs just stay white and won’t switch to amber when the turn signal stalk is activated.

Double check the video description to make sure you got the exact same bulb as I. There are multiple variants of these bulbs.

@@TechnicalMechanicalthank you for bringing it up Sir. I just read the label and it is the same bulb however it is CK and not non-CK. Could that be the issue? Thank you.

Also, I just ordered it from Lowe’s because for some reason the HR website seems to have issues with processing my order. The bulbs were $78.50 each so $157 for two bulbs 😢
