I got this once about a year ago, didn't get a pic of it or anything though. Also 2012 premium non tech.

 

Mine has the same thing come up, it has no front sensors, so its telling you to physically look at the front of your car. If there was something behind, the back of that image would turn green/yellow/red. If you go into the backend setting menu of your media system, you can adjust all sorts of things like how hard your AC blows, and you can enable and disable your rear camera, leaving only the sensor image enabled.

 

I have gone thru the settings thou I have not seen any AC settings. I'm glad I got a pic. Just thought it was weird. I did have an electric pallet jack about 3 inches from the rear bumper.

 

Turn off the audio. Then while holding the settings button, rotate the volume button clockwise till a new menu pops up. If I remember right, you get two options, self diagnosis and adjustments. In the adjustments menu you can tweak and test different systems of your car. When you go into the camera settings, one of the modes you can enable is no camera, that will enable the screen you took a photo off as your go to backup camera replacement. When finished, you just press back till the computer restarts. In the Climate Control menu you can se how fast your fan is blowing, etc.

The screen in my car looks like this:


The front has an outline of a sensor grid because its in the software. These cars in some countries like the UAE for example come with front sensors as well.

 

Know lots of folks have had these, but finally bit the bullet myself. Reluctant to pay so much for light bulbs, but I've wanted switchbacks since I got the car, and nobody seems to regret getting them. Hoping to tackle install soon if I can find a proper location...

$160 gets some pretty tidy packaging at least

 

Nice man. I went with Morimotos for my switchbacks, and while Im super happy, they could be a bit brighter. I did spend $160 on OSRAM CBI bulbs for my headlights however..... so bright lol. Post some install pics, Im curious how bright these things are.

 

I bought the same motimoto switchbacks for my brothers camry. He said they weren't bright enough and wanted something brighter.

He found a pair of bulbs on amazon by Alla Lighting for $30 and bought them.

They are brighter than the morimoto for sure, but still way less bright than my triton v3s on my G37.

He's been through 3 different sets of switchbacks now.

1st were the expensive $80/pair switchbacks from VLEDs (the ones that are just below the v3 tritons). They burned out after 1 year.

2nd was morimoto

3rd are the amazon bulbs.

If he just bought v3 tritons in the first place he wouldn't have this problem lol

 

I was home and not working today because I was kinda 'sick'. Anyway, I went through the family camera and found some pictures from the last time I washed the car. These are the most recent pictures of my car I have

If anyone remembers my car, the differences would be the HappyBuyItNowExtreme roof spoiler and later model coupe 19"s.

 

How wide are your PSS on the back Lego?

They fit the width of those 19s (19x9?) perfectly....

 

Awesome choice, man! These are very bright... you won't be disappointed! Install is fairly easy also. for me the hardest part was just getting the right gasket and screw combo to get them mounted to the headlight housing properly. They are also a very tight fit, so strong hands are a must to twist them in place. Good luck!

 

Are these for the turn signals, to switchback from something to amber? Don't they also have another component... ballast or whatever?

 

275/35 on 19x9

 

Yes, it's for the turn signals. It's white when the parking lights are engaged, and amber when you turn the signal on. There is an option to dim the white light when the low-beams are on because it's quite intense. It has a ballast and a resistor component, very easy to install.

I've had a few issues with my VLED's on previous cars but they always take care of me. Their customer service is fantastic.

StownStaint, something to note before you tear everything apart as I see you picked the 5k option. The 6K bulb option is closer to a 5000k and matches my Morimoto 5500K in my low beams near perfectly. The 5K VLED bulbs have a noticeable tinge of yellow. This may be a good choice if you have OEM bulbs.

 

I've never seen your car before Lego, well done.

 

Got it, thank you. I'm just not familiar with switchbacks.

Actually have a pair that a buddy gave me last year, but since I don't have tha ballast, I've not played with it. No that's not it... I *like* the amber against my white car, so much that my Morimoto fogs are amber-wrapped.

Can these be had in amber-amber? nvrmnd... Browsing VLED.com right now. So many options, LOL.
