Hi I was about to order some led's from this site buy I have heard of some problems that they do not shut off all the way. Is this a problem with them? Are there any other drawbacks?

I ordered some LEDs from SuperBirghtLEDs and at first was impressed with them. But now, after maybe 2 months of use, they are starting to flicker on and off. I have to replace them which I am not happy about. Ill be calling them tomorrow to demand replacements otherwise Ill be taking my business elsewhere

some leds dont turn off due to discrepancy in the resistor values. i've had this problem with vleds.com products. but this counts as a manufacturing defect and you should be able to get them replaced for free.

Hell yeah i say you tell them that you will post the lack of customer service and will influence the sales of all G35 buyers and potential customers, and give them the link to this site which will show you are not lying

if it has been more than 30 days (standard warranty time from most led suppliers that i have seen) then youre out of luck.

I hate superbrightleds.
I burnt out 2 for the plate, 3 for the side markers, and 3 for the clearance strip and another one blinking. This all happened in ~2 months lol.

That Sucks! I thought LEDS, in general, last a lifetime....don't they?

LEDs HATE heat. there are several factors that can contribute to the life of an LED

I had some 6 led bulbs from vleds above my license plate. Burnt out pretty quick. Then I tried the WLED-WHP LED Wedge Base Bulbs from superbrightleds.com. They're really bright, and almost completely white. I'm really happy with them. Got some in the clear corners also.

Oh, and superbrightleds has a 1 year warranty on all products, so keep that invoice!
