Hmm, that definitely looks like they're flickering. This is the first time I've seen this with the LED Map Lights. I run them in my 2011 GT and haven't had a single issue! I can get you a replacement sent out, that should fix the issue for you.

Shoot me a PM with your order number and I'll have the replacement shipped right away!

From my own experience, most LED's seem to be cheaply made and are hit or miss. Looks like you got a bad one with some of the LED's failing. Luckily Dan's got you covered.

this is common due to power leakage. some of the higher quality LEDs handle it better than others.

I have a similar issue but different. I have led map lights but this issue happens with the stock bulbs as well. When I turn the key to acc or on my map lights start flashing like a turn signal in unison. They remain on until I turn the key off. I checked the fuses, played with the alarm, if I turn the map lights on with the buttons they will stay solid but when I turn them off they continue to flash. The spin wheel however does not turn them on anymore but the dimmer function still works on the dash. I also tried using my key to unlock the driver door as well and disconnected the battery for an hour too. I'm not sure what else I can do besides take her in. Any help would be appreciated. I have a 2011 GT.

I went through three sets of Raxiom LEDs in the map lights, side markers, and license plate. Never lasted longer then three months before one of the diodes would die, or they would start to flash, etc. They are sub par quality for an auto application. Too bad too, I liked the light quality.
