Does this bulb function the same as its filament counterpart? I.e. does it have a regular on setting for driving and a 2nd brighter setting 4 braking?

Don't get them the blob never worked for me. Half turned on and I would wiggle it and it would flicker.

if your car uses a standard 3157 tail lamp, brake lamp bulb than these will work. They draw very little current so if your blinkers cycle fast you can live with fast blinkers or you can buy a load resistor that will take them back to the normal speed.... for some cars you can also change from a resistive flasher module to an electronic one which is the best way to go if you need to do something like that - adding the resistor brings the power drain up to the same as the regular bulbs while the electronic flasher does the same work but does not add more load.

No, it has a singluar polarity and only has one poitive and one negative lead. If your looking for this to work as a true dual filament than I would suggest to look elsewhere. This is a compatable bulb for a 7440 as opposed to a 7443. (the "3" is the dual filament version)

Yes, these bulbs have a bright and dim circuit just like a regular 3157 bulb. Just be advised they don't work when system voltage is 14.5 ie when your car is running. They work fine when it's not.

Are you sure that's the correct bulb John, the Bulbrite link goes to a 1156 single filament bulb. Most trailer lights Ive seen are an 1157 with two filaments?

I believe it's a dual mode bulb. I have one bulb spot in my vehicle and this bulb fits and does both duties.

THey are similar to the OEM, and they do have both low beam and beam filaments, they are a Xenon charged bulb. But just to be clear, they are not true HID Xenon

The light is actually brighter than the stock halogen bulb. The only negative thing is that the high beam does not seem to be as defined. I use this on my motorcycle along with Vision X lights that I use with the high beams. They do perform very well.

I have 2 of these bulbs and they both work well, but I did figure out that they need to be in a single on off type socket{not a 3 way lamp socket}I hope this helps you.

My bulbs appear to have the same brightness, except for the one that only lights up when you have it on night light setting. It lights up yellow when activated by itself.

I had these bulbs in my 2005 F150 for the parking light/turn signal . I no longer have the truck, but I'm pretty sure they functioned as dual filament because they would get brighter when flashing for turn/hazard as opposed to just parking lights But I cannot say for sure

I replaced my #90 bulbs with this and they work great. Quite a bit brighter than the traditional filament bulb.

Hello, I do apologize that your tech is giving you that information. That bulb hooks up only one way with the same connection. Search online you'll find same bulb part number for driver and passenger side, hope this helps. Also if I may give you a tip, rule of thumb when replacing headlight bulbs recommend replace both bulbs at the same time. The older bulb will show a slightly different color discoloration.Thanks,SV

I replaced the bulb in my P60 and after trimming the large spring it works, but all of the bulbs I was sent are multi mode bulbs. It is much brighter, but if you use the momentary switch you get bright, dim, strobe and I think S.O.S. Hope that helps.

It's a dual purpose bulb, but your car has to be designed to use this bulb. There are two filaments inside. One is shielded and the other is not. I believe, the low beam is the shielded one. The bulb is keyed so it fits in your car in one orientation.

They work the same as OEM with high and low. The lifespan will be less than the OEM bulbs and I have found that they are no better than the OEM's that they replaced but were a lot more money. In my opinion, they were a waste of money for my truck.

I installed one in my 2004 Silverado with LED's in the rear and filament lamps in front and it worked great. Will your lights turn on at all and not flash or do they just not come on at all? Did they work with your old flasher & just flash rapidly? My old flasher made my signals flash rapidly w/led's until I put this flasher in and then it slowed it down to normal speed. Put your old flasher in to see if your lights work. It could be you have bad flasher.
