Hello all, I am seeking some help out there from fellow Pacifica owners. My wife and I just bought a 2020 Pacifica Touring L. Was thinking about upgrading the front and rear turn signal bulbs to LEDs. Has anyone out there done this upgrade and if so what bulbs did you use? Did you end up with any hyper flashing or errors of a bulb being out? So disappointing to see that this model did not get led headlights or signal lights. Appreciate the help.

The one thing you need to be careful with LED upgrade bulbs is that if not properly designed, they can throw out enough RF interference that your keyfob will stop working if they are on. So try to buy from legit brands. Not cheap knockoffs.
I totally agree with you. I had that exact thing happen when I swapped bulbs on my 2016 equinox. So I had to revert to original bulbs.

Did you have any issues with remotes or electrical interference? Have any pictures of these bulbs? Also do the bulbs need to be Canbus?

Ya LEDs are great! But poorly made LEDs are not great. Not only can they be very RF noisy, they often don’t comply with basic electrical safety regulations. There are many tear downs of LED bulbs on YouTube showing how shoddy they can be. Buy name brand or at least something that’s UL or CSA certified so you can look up the certification yourself.

Know of any good name brand LEDs? And thanks for the tip.

No not for applications like this. A quick Google and I see Philips has some automotive bulbs. Maybe Sylvania? You’d have to look around. You could also go talk to a vehicle modification shop that specializes in lights and see what they have to offer. I wouldn’t just buy whatever you find on Amazon for this. It is full of knockoffs and counterfeit stuff.
