• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Front Turn Signal LED conversion

And has anybody changed their rear turn signal and can share the procedure and tools used?
Ok so...I managed to get the passenger side rear turn signal bulb out, just using my hands. But, let me tell you, it was the biggest pain in my ass, so hard to get to. You have to go up from underneath the rear bumper. If you look up and see red, that’s where the bulb is, to the very outside of that red part. It is a 2357 bulb. Also compatible with 1157. I haven’t yet found a canbus compatible LED of those bulbs. There are some that say canbus compatible but reviews say they still had hyper flash. Resistors would prevent that, but with such a tight space, it would be impossible to do the work without taking the rear bumper off.

Still researching... lol. They made that blinker SO inconvenient
 
Try these:

Again, not promoting or recommending this product. Use at your own risk.
Good luck!
 
And they WORK! Finally got 100% LED exterior lighting on my Telluride S!

Used a 90 degree bent needle nose plier to remove the bulb carriers, but no big deal. On the driver's side, you have to remove a panel. Not so on the passenger side. Just let the muffler cool!

Now to test for longevity...

Nice!!! What panel did you remove? Wheel well?

It's a small panel cover from the rear of the rear wheel well to the plastic trim of the bumper. It's got 3 plastic fasteners and 2 plastic nuts, so use a flat head screwdriver or a dedicated removal tool (like I did)for the fasteners. After removal, look up and VOILA! On the passenger side, no such panel. Just watch out for the hot muffler. Space is tight, so be patient. I used a 90 degree bent needle nose plier to turn the sockets.

Good luck!
