    FYI - Technically SMD stands for Surface Mounted Device, not Surface Mounted Diode...
    i.e You have a SMD Diode - a Surface Mounted Device where the device is a diode but (in electronics) you can have SMD Capacitors, SMD Resistors, etc.

    I wish the blinker in the halo XSB could work in a "flow" mode, circling around like a loading indicator for images and videos

    They burn out quick but your warranty are awesome and good. It just a hassle taking them apart

      Danny Duong The old XB LED wasn't very reliable, but that was COB, these are "Hybrid LED" which uses SMD primarily...much much more reliable.

      +TheRetrofitSource Inc (The Retrofit Source) question could these lights be wired with a manual switch to choose either White or Amber instead of using them to blink? Would like option to choose just White and Amber

      +TrigunVS yes you can. Originally the XSB could not - but now the newer 2.0 version can be used as an all amber strip

      +The Retrofit Source Inc awesome !! Thanks for quick response to my question! Like how bright the white and Amber are seen video of some color changing ones and there no where near true to color like these ones.

    Dumb question but are these as flexible horizontally as they are vertically?

    I'd love to see this in the daylight as a DRL like the 2016 accords ECT. But I'm weary if these will be as bright as whatever honda is using. How would I go about wiring this up to the 2006 civic as a DRL??

    Hi there... do the strips bend in a "L" (with the LEDs facing out) or just in circles... Also do they mount with wire or do they have a sticky back to them? Thanks!

  • @gabrielgalaxygh
    @gabrielgalaxygh 6 років тому

    Do the strips require a resistor for the turn signals or is it built in. To avoid hyperflash

    • @RetrofitSource
      @RetrofitSource  6 років тому +1

      If you're simply tapping your turn signal, most likely not. If you are replacing you turn signal, you would probably need a resistor.

    I have spent the past 5 hours on your site and looking at my cars headlights. I have a question that I need answered before I consider spending the nearly $400 on various things from theretrofitsouce. Basically I have decided to go with a two halo setup from another company that come in custom application specific half circle cuts for my cars model, but I wanted to know if I could use a set of your XSB just for blinker functions and the emergency light function, no daytime running light, and no white light at all. Would this be possible to configure?
    The reason being is that there will already be two Halos per headlight and another 24 inch strip would make it far too busy, but I would love it if it could be used just as a blinker strip.

      @AmRFuKYaH 8 років тому

      Hernandez.04 Unfortunately I did not figure this out, got sidetracked with another project. Try emailing or calling their customer service directly, that's what I would've done if still interested. If you do do some digging please share, would love to know for the future. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

    I want to purchase a Halo set, NOW! I clicked on the "link below" and received a page with a big "OOOPS!" I was told something's wrong, given no specifics except that maybe the page was outdated, which I highly doubt. Can someone at Morimoto please help me purchase these Halos? Is there a phone number where you can be reached? Thanks in advance for any help!
