Hi there , it comes with all the instruction but if you struggle it should be no more than 30 minutes work from any capable garage.

Thanks simon
Could be one of the first mods, decisions,decisions . I also like the main headlights is there a massive difference in the amount of light given off from them? Can see a small fortune being spent on this vehicle Big Cry

UT,

Would it be possible to have the drl's built into the bumper as you normally do with them dimming as the headlights are on and then also having the Razer led driving lights installed using a secondary light switch from the cabin? If that makes sense?

Then you would have DRLs for normal use and the option of a brighter light if needed with the led driving lights?

Hope I'm not being overly simple...!

James

No problem at all James , the drls automatically dim down when the lights are switched on .

The lazers (or any other light) can be put on a second switch and we use an oe switch the 2 on it so you don't have an ugly aftermarket switch in the cabin. Like below pic :

Hi Simon

Is there any update on the mixed DRL / Driving light version. I'm in Woburn so I'd be interested if you can supply and fit (I'm lazy)

Thanks

Apologies Alan,

I'm still trying to add driving lights to the range, for now though, It's just DRLs I'm afraid .

Most machine shops will cut you the holes if you supply them with a template. Had mine done at machine shop becuase I have a stainless steel bumper, they charged me £20.00 for a perfect job.

What thickness are the bumpers you use Simon ? I'm after one sort of 5mm thick is that something you can do with 4 drls
