Just started my light headlight journey too (no AE as not a fan)

Took about an hour to cut one open and replace the clear stick and re-glue :)

Hi

Just ordered these myself, I emailed my concerns RE misting and she advised that they have had 0.001% of units returned for misting and on those occasions new units have been sent out!. Woops just ordered black version!

Looking at buying these this weekend after you responses last weekend to my thread. Just two quick questions - the third light along the top, can you give a insight to what this is as it is not shown in the ebay advert. Also from connecting in to the side lights, have there been any problems with warning lights and how does it look with the Halos on with side lights?

Just one point to whoever buys them they have inbuilt motors/steppers so if they stop working you'll have to find a way to replace/fix them or buy a whole new headlight. Otherwise all plug and play and look great...

Hi Dan
Please define a little bit of wiring?
Also, I I have read lots of posts about fitting these type of lights some of which went into very painful detail but the main theme was they don't work fully without fitting all sorts of electrical components, what say thee?
Regards
