im picking up a set of V4 cables soon but before i do i just want to make sure and see if anyone is selling their V5 or V6 cables. i could live with the strobing but prefer the lights wouldnt. let me know, thanks.

 

I'm selling a set of V4s also but I think they don't strobe if you have the light switch in the Auto position. I'm going to double check with Bruce.

 

thats good to hear. let me know when you get an answer

 

This is Bruce's reply: In the V4 depending on the software level in the car the lights may Strobe but only for the first 3-4 seconds on start-up. There after there is no Strobing. Some cars may not even Strobe on start-up if the switch is in the Auto position.

Since we don't know which specific software version would not have the strobing, I guess it's better to assume that it'll probably strobe a bit at start-up, unless you're lucky and have the version that doesn't strobe.

 

Hop in the V6 group buy
