Infinite Offroad JL/JT Turn Signals

[Moe-Jave]

I just ordered a set of the "wide 6-pin (halogen factory)" LED replacement turn signals. I did not see other threads on this, and @Minty JL got me there with his suggestion of the fender chop kit from Infinite Offroad.

I don't think I'm quite ready to chop my fenders (just running 35s) and really want a cleaner fender liner before I do...

So I got these:
Infinite Offroad Turn Signals

Anyone else have experiences with these halogen replacement turn signals? I like the looks and hope they are durable. They have a great warranty, provided they stick around.

Nice price point and they send you stickers and i think I magnetic cozzy

Should only take about 30 minutes to install them....... a couple plastic push pins, 1x 10mm and one T25 (if memory serves me right)

Thanks, seems just a matter of getting the liner out of the way. Like you said, easy installation. It doesn't seem like it would be much harder than simply changing the bulbs -- which was my comparison point here.

These full replacement units cost about the same as the higher output LED bulb replacements from Diode Dynamics. Also note, the Diode Dynamics 1210 lumen units are BRIGHT...and you put out a huge amount of light scatter. On my JL, I put a couple coats of "clear matte" on the cover to tamp it down a bit. If I went that route again, I'd probably get the lower output LED bulbs.

The Diode Dynamics LEDs are worth doing, and I liked it on my JL. It just isn't the look I'm after here this time around on my JT. I just hope these are quality units; I'll report back soon...

No experience with those fender lights, but experience with Infinite Offroad. They are literally 20 min down the road from me, great people, great warranty, and great lights.
They've been around the block a bit so I'm not as worried about them sticking around, they also sponsor our Jeep club.
My headlights and fog lights came from Infinite when I upgraded from Halogens to LEDs, plug and play and look great.

Oh and those A Pillar lights came from Infinite, almost forgot about them cause I won them in a giveaway.

That's a really nice testimonial and I appreciate it. Nice rig!

A quick update:

The fender lights arrived yesterday and I installed them right away. It took me a LOT longer than expected. Naturally, it would be easier the "next time". The adhesive on the top of the halogen light housing makes a very strong seal (at least it did on mine). Body trim removal pry bars were handy for this part. The directions were also not correct for my particular vehicle (there are a few more bolts to remove).

While the units are electrically plug-and-play, there were a couple fairly minor installation issues. First, the lights are stamped the wrong direction. It is obvious enough but the (L) and (R) casting marks are reversed (it is always from the driver's perspective).

Additionally, the mounting holes on the light housing are too small to re-use the factory hardware. While not a big deal to drill out, you only figure that out once the light is ready to be buttoned up. I plan to get that feedback to Infinite Off Road. They should either include new hardware or change the hole size.

The wiring harness is decent quality with good connectors (not quite OEM good). You will need to zip-tie the excess length, but better than being too short. Diode Dynamics wiring/connectors have spoiled me (OEM quality!).

I used JScan to make the change to LED before installing the new lights (since they will likely turn on when you open the door). I've read that some have destroyed LEDs with the halogen setting in place for the fog lights (though not for these, yet?). Just being cautious...

*Edit: They look great and the fit-and-finish is very good. I'm happy with these and feel they represent an incredible value. At $175 (normally about $200), I'm sure they are made abroad (though there are no clear country markings). Again, you get two complete housings for the price of high-end replacement LEDs from DD.

I've since shared the installation/fitment issues with Infinite Off Road so maybe future kits will install more smoothly...

Sequential indicators too…

 

[Minty JL]

Hell yeah man, looks great.

Lets be honestly, if everything was easy, modding Jeeps would be boring LOL

Update: The driver's side unit failed in an interesting way. I want to say upfront that Infinite Off Road has been great to work with here -- and gave super fast responses to my email inquiries. Really, top notch customer service! "25 year replacement guarantee"!

So, I started to notice the driver's side main white LED element would randomly quit working (just a few days after the initial installation). As you'd imagine, this is hard to see unless you happen to catch a reflection or step out and see it for some reason. In this failure scenario, the amber indicator would work fine. Only the white LED and side marker would fail to operate. The sequential indicator would always work when the other components would not.

Curiously, I could sometimes get it to cycle back to normal function by toggling power off and back on again. That would not always work and got me thinking it might be heat related (the physical connecters seemed fine). Also, I've had a couple occasions where it would not recover until the next day (when discovered at night). So, being a heat related failure is my final thought on this for now. Anyhow, I shared some videos about how it would fail, and sometimes recover. They thanked me and said their engineering team would check it out.

To their credit, they sent a replacement unit right away. They typically need a video to demonstrate the issue, but when something fails intermittently, that is hard to do.

I installed the new unit today. It seems fine so far. For the price, and excellent service, I'd have no hesitation in recommending this setup. For the money, this is amazing value. I learned a bit here too and remain happy with the fender lights and Infinite Off Road.

That's good that the company is quick to remedy the issue. Sadly, I've seen the same product, at least it looks very similar, on Amazon with some not so great reviews. I feel like a lot of these types of products are all from the same factory and rebranded with different prices. At the end of the day the company came through so good deal.

I have the same lights, but they were sold by loyo led.

You can find the same ones on Amazon under countless different brand names. Aka they are generic Chineseium.

I love mine, but they do act funny when I use my turn signals during daylight with my headlights in auto. Every other blink is like a half blink? Hard to describe. I'll find a video.

My solution is to turn my DRL or headlights on manually. Now.

Found the video of my issue.

 

[Moe-Jave]

I'm not surprised -- maybe there are differences, but maybe not. We've all seen the endless Chinese clones with other products. FWIW, mine don't do that (yet?!).

Still, I thought I was buying something a bit more bespoke...we are blinded by a good deal!

I really don't want to get better at swapping these out...a bit of a pain and I have to keep borrowing my buddy's plastic rivet gun!

 

[Minty JL]

Nothing like solid customer service.

I got the plastic rivet gun and a 100ct of the plastic rivets on Amazon

Nice! Mind linking it? I think that's a good investment.
