LEDs have arrived. Installation on the GT86, going to be a little more effort, due to removing the fog light. Keep you posted.

I'm in shoot me a PM

Ok guys, according to my tracking number they just got into San Diego lastnight and left this morning. Hopefully I get them soon to get a DIY up for everyone. Sorry for such a long delay when everyone else has gotten theirs.

thanks, appreciate it. sucks how you waited so long. mine is flying to San Francisco as we speak

F-T, someone asked a question a while ago about replacement LEDs for this unit should one or more burn out. Did you ever get an answer? Are the LEDs replaceable?

Thanks.

FR-Shadow · 01-30-2013, 05:08 PM

They are in FINALLY!!!!!

Looking at these and the directions they seem really really easy.

I have 3 options:

1. DRL stays on at all times
2. DRL dims down when head lights are turned on
3. DRL turns off when head lights are turned on

I think im going to go with #2. But 2 and 3 are easy to switch back and forth on its just 1 wire to swap. More to come stay tuned...

Ryan86 · 01-30-2013, 08:42 PM

Supa, I have been staring at mine for 3 days now, can't wait to install on the weekend.
Let us know how you did the wiring and if easy enough to do or whether it should be done by qualified person.

FR-Shadow · 01-31-2013, 12:59 AM

Just finished. So easy do not pay someone to do it. Also there are many ways to wire it. Other people may find other methods easier or more aesthetically pleasing. Mine is as clean as i could get it. I also kept in mind ill be doing car shows so my hood will be open. I can't have wires everywhere. Also for anyone looking on buying i didn't take off the bumper. I didn't even need to get under the car. The most i did was kneel to take pics. Watch for the diy.

bulbs are good up to 50,000 hours, thats over 2,000 days if you leave it on 24 hours!!! There is no option to replace bulb. We bulb them right the first time. Prodcut is very high quality and up to standard with OEM equipment.

ALL DONE!

Ryan86 · 01-31-2013, 01:40 PM

Well done, great job, I was making it out to be harder than it is.
When you connected to the ignition, do the lights come on as you turn the key one notch or when the car is running?

What's your opinion now that its fitted. LED DRL or LED FOG lights?

Will do mine on weekend.

It comes on when the key is turned so really its connected to an acc wire. Also considering we don't have fogs as an option in the us this is the way to go.
