If I do this mod, can I replace the factory bulbs with LEDs and turn those blinkers into brake lights in addition to the twin factory LED rings? If yes, what else do I need to do that?

You would have to install an LED in place of the factory incandescent turn signal bulbs

OK, so which LED bulbs do I need to order? Do I need to splice or cut any wires to turn the blinkers into brake lights (i.e. they light up when I step on the brakes and go off when I step off)?


Does the PnP kit also turn the factory incandescent blinkers, which are no longer used as blinkers, into brake lights? That's what I want to do.


Do I need to go to your website to place an order? Or can I do it here?

I suggest giving us a call so we can clear the confusion you are having: (314) 205-3033

Make sure you watch the video as well

You won't be cutting anything with this plug and play kit. It converts the factory LED tail lights to act as both tail lights and turn signals (Hence the name, Tail-As-Turn™). You can leave the incandescent bulb in, but you'll have to remove the resistor if you do that. it will require more wiring if you wish to make the factory turn signal come on with the brake lights, and you'll need to install and LED.

The G35 Kit uses the same connector as the G37. Here's the video for more explanation:

This makes it look like a dodge avenger or caravan imho. I'm more interested in sequential turn signals so that they work like in a newer mustang only better looking due to more leds.

That would be cool to get it to circle around. Now THAT would be a mod!

Agreed, sequential would be much nicer on the G35

Hi I bought this module and noticed that when I press on the brake and turn on the signal, the front and rear signal lights blink alternately back and forth and not at the same time. If I turn just the signal on with no brakes everything is fine. Is anyone else having this issue or is it just me..? Not happy about this.

Okay just went to check mine and had the brake on on park, reverse and drive with the turn signal left and right and it worked fine. Maybe you got a bad kit or something else is messed up.

So your front and rear signal lights up at the same time when you have your foot on the brakes? Mine is blinking like an ambulance.

Whoops I guess I misread your post and yes mine does that too I wonder why it does this? Not that big of a problem for me but it is weird.
