Diode Dynamics LED Boards RGBWA (2018-2023 Mustang) DD2243

Introducing Diode Dynamics Multicolor LED Boards for the 2018+ Ford Mustang (USDM)! Computer-designed to drop right in place of the 2018+ S550's factory LED boards, they enable thousands of custom colors for a completely unique look. When paired with our Bluetooth RGBW Controller, customers will also have access to dozens of unique patterns, sequences, and other unique features through the included app.

True RGBW color-changing means you will retain a brilliant, pure white for road use, on top of endless color customization. These boards will be available in both RGBW and RGBWA options. The RGBWA option enables a sequencing amber when using the turn signals or hazards in sync with the factory tail lamp speed.

OEM Style, Multicolor Function The Mustang's factory headlamps are fitted with signature "tribar" DRLs. By replacing the circuit boards inside with Diode Dynamics LED circuit boards, you can add full multicolor functionality, along with an optional amber sequencing turn signal mode, to seriously make your ride stand out! Your order includes two sets of LED boards, one for each side of the vehicle.

RGBW This product is not just RGB, it is RGBW! That means there is an extra LED chip that is specifically white in color, right next to the standard red, green, and blue LEDs. By using an RGBW controller, you can activate and control the white chip independently of the colors. This provides a much more uniform, pure, and bright white color than the traditional method of combining all RGB signals, so you can keep a clean, factory white appearance for everyday driving.

Sequencing Turn Signal To take it a step further, you can select the RGBWA boards, which add yet another set of LEDs, high-power amber emitters. Any time your turn signal is activated, they will sequence across. The RGBWA drivers use a programmed integrated circuit to keep the timing exactly in sync with the factory tail lamp speed, for a unique feature that still flows well with factory styling.

OEM-Grade Design At Diode Dynamics, we work directly from OEM data, and use a 3D scanner, to develop precise replacement boards with identical mounting points and shape. Just remove the original boards, and ours will fit directly in place with correct alignment. You'll also see OEM design features, such as high-intensity automotive emitters, wire connectors, and serial numbers for quality assurance.

Works correctly, with no surprises In 2014, Diode Dynamics was the first to make replacement multicolor circuit boards. Our goal is to make them work just like the factory system - except for that fact that you can change the color anytime, you'd like! That means connecting to the factory DRL and running light signals for proper operation. This isn't as easy as it sounds - on the Ford Mustang, all functions are powered through the vehicle's computer, rather than traditional relays. If the vehicle doesn't see the power draw it expects, it disables the signal. Many of our competitors skip the factory signals, instructing customers to connect power to the battery, and manually turn the LEDs off and on every time they're used. Not ideal!

To provide an upgrade without disabling the factory functions, our engineers spent dozens of hours with our own Mustang and consulted with Mustang owners overseas in order to tune the drivers correctly. They pull enough power to light up the boards brightly, with the factory functions, but do not cause any errors with the vehicle's computer. The included instructions show you exactly which wires to connect to, for no guesswork. Everything works perfectly, with no errors: there's no need to sacrifice factory function with Diode Dynamics products!

Optically correct Unlike strips or halos, replacement boards work in conjunction with factory optics in your headlight. Since the factory setup uses only one white chip, it can be difficult to align the light properly from all four replacement emitters (Red, Green, Blue, and White). To save cost, other brands often use low-cost generic chips, which cannot focus light properly. This creates odd appearances, as some sections are brighter than others, and mixed colors like yellow and purple don't match. Diode Dynamics uses high-intensity automotive emitters to direct light properly to the factory optic, and all designs are tested a number of times with small adjustments to make sure the setup is optimized. Even a 0.1mm change can make a big difference, and Diode Dynamics products are carefully tuned for maximum performance.

Reliable operation To drive the high-power LEDs safely, a constant-current, waterproof, inductive driver is included for each set. These drivers were designed to last the life of your vehicle, and have been subjected to advanced transient voltage testing. These tests replicate the electrical wear and tear experienced in automotive environments every time your alternator starts and stops, which is what kills less robust electronics over time. The entire kit is also tested for long-term operation from -40 to 185 degrees F, vibration, and corrosion. All of these tests are completed to SAE/DOT standards, just like the factory components.
