sooo... you guys getting these strip kits... you are baking your lights?! I'm seriously considering a vacation to Poland now... just wanted to get all this repair/insurance/warranty stuff on my car out of the way before I started any more "work"...

no, bake open the mustang headlights is really hard and the result is not sure (cough cough *@john577*). We are letting someone expert to open the light, and mostly they cut open the back to fit the led boards in.

I'd be nervous for either baking or cutting my housing lights. It sucks that Ford didn't equip one of the best visual features of the Mustang for Euro Spec cars.

Pleaseeee .... Nooooo ... Don't remembers me this mistake !! :frusty::frusty: :lol: :lol:

Bake open is something you need to avoid guys. That's the good way to fuck up your headlights. That's why a professional is needed to make it for you :thumbsup:

This is not to making fun of you - you was brave to try! - but an expensive mistake of a man can be a free lesson for others :cheers:

Bad news :(

We have determined that depending on the input voltage levels on some vehicles, the turn signal function may not work when the vehicle is running. Essentially, when the vehicle is running, the microcontroller does not see the right signal to activate the turn signal. Works great when the vehicle is off, but sometimes when it's running, the turn signal just doesn't trigger. We have been able to replicate the problem on our Mustang and are sending replacement driver units immediately to all who have purchased the kit. You will get an email today.

Extremely frustrating, as we have been working with this same driver design and microcontroller for months with no problems. I'm sorry to keep you guys waiting even longer, but you will be up and running very soon. Thanks for your patience.

Isn't that exactly the PWM problem most of the EU mustangs had with your Multicolor LED kit?
I though your special EU driver was made for that

No, quite different- this problem applies to all models, not just EU, and has to do with how the microcontroller picks up that amber signal.

Strange, I never had this problem.. oh wait, I have a homemade solution, not a professional one :clap2:

EU technology beats USA again.. 2-0 now :first:
(just kidding.. well, sort of)
