These are polarity sensitive, and as mentioned above, if you have an electric cart, make sure you are connected to the 12 VDC source. PS, if you choose to roll your own installation, you will need a couple of 12 vdc automotive relays to get the white to yellow to white transistion.
Hope this helps.

SUPERBRIGHT is a great company but they don't sell the "switchbacks" that have the 2 colors on one strip. The "switchbacks" that I got come with a small box attached to the strip with 3 wires that takes care of flipping the 2 colors on 1 strip. It has 3 wires (12v, color 1 and color 2). When turn signal goes on it "flips" amber/white/amber/white and when not turning it is just a white running light. On the back it "flips" red & amber.
Superbight sells RGB strips but you can't do the "flipper" with them since the rgb's don't have dedicated colors on 1 strip.
I use alcohol then 3M adhesive promoter before attaching the strips which are attached to a textured plastic surface and NOTHING can pull it off and if it did, all the adhesive would be left behind as I discovered when I wanted to re-position them.
I also have 4 strips of "Superbright LED's" RGB strips (2 on top 2 under) on my car(t) which I can control with my phone either by wi-fi or with an rf remote.
My wife thinks I'm nuts .... maybe she's right.
