I am glad. Did you get the load resistors as well?

You are right. I did not know which one to choose when I placed the order. I will have to add it to my order.

they look great. I sent an email about the 60 LED bulbs and resistors to auto lumination and this is the response:

The front turn signal is a single circuit 7440 bulb. There are only 2 wires going to is + and -.

It can only switch on and off.

The switchback bulbs will not work as it must have 3 wires:

+ white
+ amber
- ground


The person was saying that the switchback 7443 bulbs won't work on the 2010 G37x sedan! Do they know what they are selling? I am confused.

I think they're referring to the 2009 models which do have single circuit turn signals. In the 09 and down models the park light is seperate from the turn signals, but in the 2010 the turn signal and park lights use the same bulb. I made sure of this before i purchased the bulbs myself. If you want you can check the wires and confirm for yourself but we do have the 3 wire setup. I bought them and they work fine.

I thought so. I had a 2008 G35 and it was completely different.

Do you happen to remember which resistors did you order?

Because those guys keep telling me that it is not doable. I am going to order the 60 LED with appropriate resistors like you did.

Since I only have LED turn Signals in the front, I got the 6 ohm. With the 6 ohm you will need 1 resistor per bulb. If you plan to use LED turn signals in the rear as well then get the 3 ohm. The 3 ohm only requires you to use 1 resistor on the left and one on the right. If you get the 3 ohm dont install them until you have changed both turn signal bulbs on that side to LED bulbs. I plan on removing the 6 ohm and buying the 3 ohm soon along with the some LED bulbs for the rear turn signal. I think it would be much easier to install the resistors on the rear because its alot less cluttered than under the hood. It was a pain in the a$$ installing those things. BTW does anyone know what type of bulbs are used for the rear turn signals?

Thanks man. I just completed my order; included the load resistors.
The rear turn signals are 7440 as far as I know, because I used them in my previous G and the lights are the same in 2010.

I added the 6 ohm resistors to my order as well. Can't wait until they ship it out. Too bad they don't offer a tracking feature online.
