    They run white with the DRLs and then flash Amber (like normal turn signals) when you turn your signal on

    Switchbacks DO NOT work properly on 2012-2015 models. The DRL is a very odd little creature on those trucks.

    Thanks for the info @TRSAndrew. They are weird. My are amber when in DRL mode and running lights. Then white with headlights on then switch back to amber when turn signal is activated. I've added a resistor so no hyper blink. Just weird black magic all around.

    Exactly the issue. They're amber for DRL and in parking light mode. They only go white and work as a true switchback with the headlights on.

    Add me to the list if it can be confirmed they will fit behind the 2nd gen's (2005) turn signal reflector @TRSAndrew

    Okay, great. I've tried other bulbs that were too long to fit in there. Gotta be less than 32mm from the top of the base to the end of the LED I think it is

    Interested but still a little confused. So in the 2013 is this a replacement for the stock DRL in the front? Just pull those bulbs out and put these in? Any pictures of the difference floating around?

    Sorry for the late reply, but for the 12-15 models the swtichbacks will run amber when the DRLs are on and white when the headlights are on. They should still blink amber in both situations.

    Hmm, I like the amber even when the headlights are on. Considering the regular Amber ones. I'll let you know.

    Do we have to purchase the HD Load Resistors to make this work for our 2nd gen tacomas?

    You will need a pair of resistors but they don't have to be the ones TRS sells.

    Not sure if you will need the CKs or not FOR THE REAR TURN SIGNALS... but TRS also has the same bulbs in non-CK style. The non-CKs are the same price as the CKs.
