    This video highlights the simple install steps of Diode Dynamics LED Tail Light and Backup Bulbs for the 2011-2019 Chevrolet Cruze. Unlike generic LED bulbs, our tail light and backup bulbs are designed and tested here in St. Louis to ensure maximum brightness and reliability.
    At 410 lab-proven lumens, our XP50 LED Backup Bulbs for the 2011-2019 Chevrolet Cruze are among the brightest on the market! With these installed, you'll have drastically improved rear-facing visibility, making reversing at night easier and safer.
    Providing a whopping 510 test-verified lumens, our XP80 LED Tail Light/Rear Turn Signal LED Bulbs make your 2016-2019 Cruze much easier to spot when braking or turning. And the crisp on/off of the LEDs gives your Cruze a much more modern look.

    Where do I mount the resistor on the Cruze and Malibu? I got a 2018 Chevy Malibu and I don't have much room for a resistor. Can I extend the resistor wires and mount it behind the bumper or something on metal away from plastic?

    How do you remove the inner tail light housing for 2019 Cruze, since mine needs the entire replacement? I removed 1 screw and trying to budge it off but still stuck don’t see any other screws holding the housing though I see a clamp from the side.

    Do the the brake/turn signal led requires a load resistor for hyper flashing?

    • @diodedynamics
      @diodedynamics  4 роки тому +1

      For the turn signal, yes, you'll want to add resistors to slow down the hyperflash. Thanks!

    Hi! I have a 2017 chevy cruze LT and my high mount brake light is cracked on the corner/not working and water is now leaking into my trunk/backseats. I Have found a seller who's selling the piece my main concern is if you have any idea if it is hard to do yourself? is the wiring a tough job?
    I really need to fix this issue ASAP because where I live we are experiencing a ton of rain and im beginning to smell the water/ mildew in my car. Thank you!

    Did you end up needing a resistor kit for the tail/turn bulb? The XP80

    • @diodedynamics
      @diodedynamics  2 роки тому

      The backup bulb will not need a resistor. Your blinker bulbs may need a resistor to avoid hyperblink - this is on a vehicle-to-vehicle basis. However, they are inexpensive and simple to install, so we always recommend picking up a pair when switching blinker bulbs to LEDs!
