FM ND Miata LED Fender & Rear Blinker Installation

[@simong9813]

Another master class in instruction. OK it’s a simple job but- nothing is taken for granted, instruction is clear, comprehensive and not patronising. Throughout Brandon’s videos I like touches such as making it clear that somethings can be scary (eg dashboard and interior trim dismantling), warning of unfinished metal edges and warning of applying too much force, when it isn’t necessary. Lining up fixings and ensuring things positively click into place are all key elements which are stressed. You may get the impression that I like these videos. I am a novice on cars but I have been a teacher and a coach in my professional life, and I appreciate quality of this type. People posting on KZbin should aspire to your high standard. Great job. Cheers. Great job

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

We appreciate your kind words! It's important to set expectations. :)

I've just installed mine - they were delivered in 3 days from the USA to Northumberland (England's northernmost and loveliest county), which was great service. The only slightly tricky part was easing the LED boards in to the lamp housing, but after a bit of trial-and-error I got a satisfactory alignment. Everything else was very easy; the lamps work very well, and look great.

[@VENTURA805WesG]

I just installed mine. I took about an hour I was going super slow. One thing to make sure of is that you fully plug the led board into the socket. You shouldn't see any of the metal tabs if correctly seated. Cool upgrade

[@ltkwok]

Just installed. Not too bad for an amateur like me. Tested it before buttoning everything down. The resistor gets real hot!

[@ADUSN]

Tom Matano's signature is an amazing touch.

[@weeaboopatrol4638]

I installed the rear LEDs in less than 30 minutes. Although, I would recommend a cheapo fastener remover if you dont want your fingers hurting. Thanks for this video.

[@napalmglop1]

Just installed mine (sequential rear signals) and I love the result. Very good value for money.

[@RogerK-jj5fn]

Easy install, thanks for the video

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

We're glad we could help!

[@jmushroom]

Thanks for the detailed instructions! I just installed my sequential tail lights and it was super easy.

[@wilmotown]

If only all turn signal resistors were that easy to install. Gonna get these right when I get my miata 😊

[@chakatrain]

Thanks for the instructions and video. i was able to install them very easily, thanks to you.

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

Glad we could help!

[@gregnote8818]

Making it look super easy. Wish the car came with them in a first place.

[@tylerc4229]

Imma order these before I even get my nd miata

[@christopherjackson210]

Ok, now I feel like I was overly harsh so I hope this will let me edit. Have to say the folks at flyin’ Miata are on top of it, and have already reached out to address my only real concern - the rest was mostly being hyper critical, so - bottom line, these do look amazing, I’ll say it again, should come from factory like this and I’d buy them again.

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

Hi Christopher, You are always welcome to leave reviews on our website! We do apologize for any issues you are having. The metal straps are not used and were included by mistake from our manufacturer. As far as the fitment and the bulb socket that will not sit correctly, I'll have someone here reach out to you to make sure that gets taken care of. Please feel free to give us a call if you have any other concerns or issues.

[@kevindee2824]

It is a very smart solution.

[@mariop.4898]

Great video with great explanation! Now I have to search and find a dealer who sells the parts in the EU.

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

We don't have an official EU retailer at the moment, but will ship worldwide on most products.

[@mariop.4898]

@@FlyinMiataVideo Thanks for the reply and the offer. The problem that arises is the import duties in the EU. I recently ordered barbecue utensils in Serbia (around €260) and then paid customs and handling fees (€80) for them. That's crazy, isn't it!?

[@ac_motorsports]

Hi Brandon, in having trouble with removing the side markers at 9:29. Do you push the tab backwards or do you pinch the tab towards the front while pushing backwards. Thanks

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

@andrewchan1011 You need to physically push the light housing towards the back of the car, which depresses the spring clip, while freeing the front of the light housing up.

[@legoking97]

for the sequentials, why did you pull the wire harness/grommet through the metal body? i just twisted the light seals and unplugged the whole assembly

[@ktheeck]

I have a 2023 MX5 Sport. I installed the led repeating turn signals on the front fenders and also a read led light bar. After that I bought the rear led turn signals and started on the right side because the left side had the rear led light bar piggybacked. I installed the right rear led and an accompanying resistor. When I tested the lights the rear turn signal worked perfectly but I noticed the led repeater was burnt out. The resistor also got pretty hot so to be on the safe side I reinstalled the bulb in the right rear turn signal. I have a new repeater on the way but question whether the same thing will happen again when I replace the repeater, led turn signal and resistor? Do I even need the resistor if the turn signals don’t hyper flash? TIA

Way cool

[@RoaminRomeros]

The link directs me to a page not found are these out of stock?

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

We just launched a new website yesterday and a few of the products are still coming back online. They're available now.

[@theacn5308]

What is the spec for the included resistors?

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

The included resistors for our Sequential LED rear turn indicator pair for ND are rated at 10 ohms.

[@teamrevolsk8]

And the others one? The light that are on the corners. I look that are LED but i want to know how install.

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

Are these the lights you are asking about? kzbin.info/www/bejne/pH7dlq2YrcyjbNU

[@fairandhonestvideoreviews7527]

Hello! I just got my 2018 ND RF. I purchased your led lights for the rear turn sequential , license plate, reverse lights, side marker sequential smoked out(great look) and the FRONT amber TURN signals. At each install from REAR to FRONT, I checked that they work. As soon as I got to the FRONT turn signals and installed them, I NOW HAVE FAST FLASHING REAR, SIDE and FRONT Turn signals. Please help. Thank you!

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

Did you install the resistors? If so, please contact our customer service team directly and we'll help you troubleshoot. We can't do it properly through KZbin comments.

[@fairandhonestvideoreviews7527]

@@FlyinMiataVideo Yes, but the second set of resistors were hiding in the box face down and didn't see this second set of resistors. I was under the impression that only 1 resistor per side would be enough. I installed the second set in Parallel and hyper flashing is now gone. Thank you! :)

[@roderickjones7479]

Are these available for the NC? Greetings from England 🇬🇧

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

Unfortunately our supplier does not offer them for the NC at this time. So sorry about that. We're looking for an NC option, but don't have an ETA at the moment.

[@thomasstephenson1450]

Can i fit Sequential LED rear turn indicators if iv fitted Red LED strip with rear harness to my car

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

We aren't familiar with that modification. These fit into the factory bulb sockets, so if you have modified the rear bulb harness, these probably won't work for you.

[@evanb09]

No matter what I do I can’t get the tail light out of the car on my 2022. It looks like you barely push on it and yours comes out, but I’ve put a ridiculous amount of force on it and it’s still in the bumper. Any tips?

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

So sorry you're having issues. if you can, give our customer support team a call directly. They might be able to offer some tips or help you figure out what's happening.

[@DaveSimkus]

Hey, I know this is old but did you figure out why your ND tail light wasn't coming out?

[@evanb09]

@@DaveSimkus yeah, they’re just difficult to remove from the inside. I used a trim removal tool on the outside (make sure it’s plastic to avoid scratching the paint) and it easily came out.

[@YetTheory]

When will you be getting new shipment? Placed my order 4 days ago!

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

We just got our new shipment and those will be going out soon! Feel free to give us a call if there is anything else we can help with.

[@thomasstephenson1450]

do you do them in Dark Gray Turn Signal Repitors LED Lights

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

The fender mounted lights are available in grey. The stock rear tail housing has a clear lens, so that cannot be changed.

[@enriquegomez5337]

Do I have to unplug the battery?

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

No need to unplug your battery for this install.

[@markc19821]

DOT SAE approved? Will these real sequentials pass inspection?

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

We have no reason to believe they will cause a problem at inspection time.

[@georgebugarin1078]

Dang I ordered these lights without the resistors because I thought that hyper flashing was only an issue on EU models and not US models (e.g. EU models having lower voltage vice the higher voltage found on US models). Help please and thank you

[@FlyinMiataVideo]

There's no difference in the system voltage that we know of. US models work off a normal 12v system. Flyin' Miata does sell resistors to deal with hyper flash - you can find them on our site.

[@PRODSPOOK]

This LED is literary impossible to put into the housing. I’ve been at this for hours.

[@DaveSimkus]

Hey, I know this comment is old but did you manage to get those sequential LEDs into the tail light housing on your ND?
