How to Install 2016-2018 Nissan Maxima Switchback LED Boards | Diode Dynamics

[@jperales423]

Those lights are nice. Im trying to get that on my altima

[@erikesparza7720]

I got a question so it looks like my 2018 Nissan maxima the led board strip has gone out partially on my driver side and I was wondering is there a small fix to that or would I have to replace the light completely? It looks like there is moisture in there as well maybe could be the cause…. If you can help me I would appreciate it greatly

Sorry but the 2016 Maxima’s daytime running leds do not blink as a Right or Left hand turn blinker.

[@ericd.4460]

Can you change the rear turn signal color to amber?

[@diodedynamics]

Hi there! We also carry amber LED upgrade bulbs for the Maxima´s rear turn signal! Here is the link: www.diodedynamics.com/rear-turn-signal-leds-for-2009-2018-nissan-maxima-pair.html

Thank you for the interesting content. I have a Maxima 2017, and I have a problem with some of the LED plants. All of them do not work, and I want to replace them. Can you provide them for me?

I wanna buy these but this video is not showing how to wire the connection. do you guys have a full video that I can watch you to wire the driver ?

[@diodedynamics]

Unfortunately, we do not. Sorry about that. However, we do have a full installation guide that can be found here: images.diodedynamics.com/docs/install/nissan/maxima/16_Nissan_Maxima_Switchback_installation_guide.pdf

[@Ackerman673]

Hi, so I already have the halo rings installed with their drivers. Is that gonna affect adding 2 more drivers? Also do they stay on and bright when is day light and the setting is automatic?

[@diodedynamics]

The additional drivers in this kit are required for the LED boards. They illuminate white for your parking lights and DRLs, with a dimmed power level at night. Anytime you hit your turn signal, they light up in a brilliant amber that is even brighter to indicate signaling.

[@ClevertymeZ]

+Diode Dynamics Ever thought about making a LED board, strip, bar, etc. for the 2016-17 Nissan Altima headlights (with the bolt shape) that didn't originally come with the LED Signature package? I think it would be profitable for you guys. Especially, with the switchback option. Just saying.

Hey Kevin! Unfortunately, we do not offer or recommend replacing halogen or HID headlight bulbs with LED bulbs, as they are illegal in the US.

Great question! While these lights are fully street legal in most areas, we don't stamp them with D.O.T approval that may be required in your area.

Will these work with the 2019 maxima as well

Will these work with the 2019 maxima

[@diodedynamics]

The 2019 Maxima headlight is not the same as the 2016-2018 headlight, so our LED board replacements will not be compatible, unfortunately. Sorry about that!
