Lors de la conception de ce kit, nos objectifs étaient clairs : améliorer les performances médiocres des feux arrière sans compromettre le contraste entre les feux de position et de freinage, obtenir une luminosité optimale des feux de position avant, améliorer considérablement la réactivité des feux de freinage et accroître sensiblement la visibilité des feux de marche arrière. Nous sommes heureux de constater que ce kit remplit avec succès ces objectifs, voire les dépasse.

Le kit comprend :
• (2) ampoules à LED pour clignotants avant
• (2) ampoules à LED pour clignotants arrière
• (2) ampoules à LED pour feux de position arrière
• (2) ampoules à LED pour feux de freinage
• (2) ampoules à LED pour feux de marche arrière
• (2) ampoules à LED pour feux de position latéraux
• (2) ampoules à LED pour feux d’immatriculation
• (2) résistances*
• Nouveau relais de clignotant (nécessaire pour le bon fonctionnement des LED)
• Instructions d’installation complètes

*Note sur la conversion aux LED : Nous avons constaté que, dans la plupart des cas, notre kit d’ampoules LED extérieures fonctionne conformément à sa conception. Toutefois, certains fourgons présentent un comportement anormal des clignotants, mais ne vous inquiétez pas : nous avons une solution ! Nous incluons un kit de résistance correctrice et un nouveau relais de clignotant pour remédier au problème qui peut affecter un petit pourcentage d’utilisateurs.

Pourquoi passer aux LED ? Les LED surpassent les ampoules à incandescence dans tous les domaines clés : luminosité accrue, allumage et extinction instantanés, durée de vie considérablement plus longue et, surtout, consommation d’énergie nettement inférieure. Cette consommation réduite se traduit par une intensité de courant beaucoup plus faible, ce qui est particulièrement avantageux pour les véhicules anciens.

Sur les véhicules classiques, le vieillissement du câblage, des bornes et des douilles entraîne naturellement une résistance plus élevée au fil du temps. Comme les LED nécessitent moins d’intensité, la chute de tension dans l’ensemble du circuit est moindre, ce qui signifie qu’une tension plus élevée atteint la douille de l’ampoule. Une tension plus élevée au niveau de la douille améliore la fiabilité de l’éclairage, l’une des principales raisons pour lesquelles les véhicules sont passés des systèmes 6 V aux systèmes 12 V.

En résumé ? Avec les LED, vos feux de freinage, de clignotants, de marche arrière et de position ont beaucoup plus de chances de fonctionner exactement au moment où vous en avez besoin.

“Illuminating”

Received my LED kit a while ago and have been slowly incorporating the LEDs to the Vanagon. The brake and taillight LEDS are a great improvement. Significantly better. The reverse light LEDs I received I believe are the incorrect ones as they are a dim amber color. See the attached images.
I have yet to install the rest of the LEDs. Will post results when I do.

Hi William, thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are checking our stock to see what's going on with that bulb. It sounds like our supplier may have co-mingled some amber bulbs with the cool white. I am assuming you would like us to mail you replacements, correct?

Typically excellent GW product.
Note: Be sure to confirm the number of filaments on the amber bulbs (contacts on bulb base) to install correct bulbs in Turn signal/parking fixtures.

So much brighter and more reliable than stock bulbs. I lucked out and didn't need the resistors. I also discovered that my rear side marker fixtures were non-stock and the supplied red LED bulbs didn't fit, not a problem with the kit. GoWesty also immediately addressed an issue with a mis-packaged reverse bulb, kudos as always!

Well made, fits right, and works! Thanks GOWESTY!! you have done it again!

This is a great kit to upgrade the exterior lights on your bus or van. I feel as though I can be seen at night now

So simple to install. And very bright.

instructions could use an update

the video instructions need to be updated with the actual bulb model #s you send. I shouldn't need an AI to figure out what bulb goes where.

Thanks for your feedback Evan. We have just made a significant update to the PDF instructions. They are very clear now! Cheers, GoWesty

That's what my turn signals and brake lights looked like. Now I actually feel safer knowing that other drivers can see me.

great but..

I had the issues that required the resistors. Even after instal, I still had issues so I went to put the old bulbs back until I could figure it out. The new LED did not fit properly and got jammed in the bulb socket up front and I ended up destroying the bulb and the socket. I am glad I had the old socket stored away so no down time because of it. The

Not what I expected

First, why not label each of the boxes with the appropriate use? This bulb for taillight, this one for brake light. Sure, you can figure it out based on the photo in the instructions, but why not make it easy, even if you just code them A, B, C, etc. Further, after installation, it became obvious that I would need the resistor accessory so I had to order it after the fact. And, I'm not sure it will fix the problem because the copy doesn't list even a sampling of the "funky turn signal behavior" one may encounter. If it did, I might have the confidence that the malfunctions I have experienced: one side blinks, the other doesn't. Neither work when the headlights are on, etc. will be fixed. For what is close to $200 of parts, this is all a disappointment. I had to remove all of the LEDs and return all of the old bulbs just to be able to run safely.

spend the $5 and get the resistors, but remember they may not work

This is a great kit over all. The bulbs are super bright and responsive. Although, I had NO issues with my incandescent front turn signals, the LEDs will not work completely on from Front Turn Signals. My Hazards work and signals work, but NOT when I turn on my marker lights. They light up but barely flash. I tried using the resistor kit to no avail. Remember, we have 40+ year old wires running through our vans. The LEDS may not always work properly. These vans are wired for LED equipment.

This grouping of LED bulbs makes a world of difference over stock incandescent bulbs. Very easy to install, fitment is plug and play. Highly recommend to keep your van recognizable in today's world of distracted drivers.

Video update needed

I give it a 4 star as the installation video is not up to date with the bulbs received. The solution to this as a consumer, sadly I figured this out after I broke a bulb. Is to go back on the website and pretend you are buying each bulb individually as the website for each bulb is what you receive in appearance, not what is in the video. But the product works great. The running, brake, turn signal lights makes me feel safer as they are so much brighter. The back up light actually lights up so you can see what is behind you. If you only need the bulbs you can buy them at superbrightleds.com for half the price. I needed the relay switch and the resistors for my 85 Westy.

some trouble but got it sorted

Initial installation was easy, but a lot wasn't working right, so I got the resistor fix, then the lights still didn't work right, GoWesty sent me a new relay, thought that worked then realized the front turn signals don't light while the headlights were on, so another email and they told me to swap the power leads on my turn signals, so I did that, and then also swapped where the resistor went and finally, I have working LED lights! Thanks for the help, GoWesty

Nice upgrade

Nice upgrade, needed the resistors for the blinkers, was pretty easy to install them

very good quality

compared to the old ones where I couldn't see them during the days, these are so much better and you can really tell when they are on. they are a bit pricey but they are worth it in my opinion.

Don’t resist, get these.

This is an easy and super useful upgrade. But just assume you’ll need the resistor and order it at the same time.
