That orange tri bar is very nice!

Looks Great, if you dont mind me asking, how much was it to get installed?

 

[S550GT]

I really like the colored lenses you have. They look great with the tri bar LEDs. Did you do it yourself?

 

[HTX]

damn that looks good!

Wait, the DRLs don't turn on and off automatically when you turn the car on?

My car was the guinea pig of the shop. Local shop who wants to start installing Diode products on the s550

For mine its not automatic. I have to use the remote to turn it on and off.

The instructions included with the kit specify the recommended wiring, so it turns on and off like factory. It should just be a matter of re-wiring them up that way.

Looks great though!

Can I have the euro instructions please? Are they always on or with when de lights are on? License plate wire is the simple solution I guess?

 

[Lsstefan]

I rewired my turn signal and that little ugly light next to it so they both turn on for a better look. I usually drive with those lights during the day. Can I:
A) connect the boards to that circuit?
B) still have them on when i turn the headlights on(this should be true, but just checking)

Thx.

That looks amazing!

There is a bit of a debate going on down here in Aus about how to fit these boards. There are a couple of methods being discussed, open the light up from the front by heating and prying open the permaseal, or cutting the back open in specific places and then plastic welding it back together. A couple of guys have bought damaged lights from salvage yards in the US to try this before attempting it on their cars.

It seems that the heating and prying open method, no matter how careful you are, damages the lip around the join and this then looks terrible with the hood open as it is quite visible.

Do you mind telling me how yours were fitted? If the light was heated and pried open, would there be any chance you could take a photo of the top edge of the light for us? If it was done another way would you mind sharing how.

My installer did it by heating it and prying it open. I'll try to post pics when i get home
