Ooooo didn't realise it was just one piece of trim needed to be removed, may have a peek at this tonight.

Well done and thanks to all involved with this, top effort!!

The inner clusters have 2 holes drilled in each so the bulbs fit snug and the reverse/fog reflectors has 2 parts removed to clear the bulbs, i send out a how to with the kit either way and in the how to it explains how to mod your own light units, some dont mind drilling the lights others would rather not

@ Phil Miller: are yours with LEDs (red or white ones)? Or incandescent ones? Because it always looks like the 'flood' and match with the o.e.m tail lights aren't good with LEDs.
Or am I wrong?...

Im using RED Leds and they look good IMHO, you get a nice amount of ring light, tbh you cant compare the filament to LEDs, but imho they give a good light and look smart :happy2:

Hi mate yes for £33 you get both lights modded with the LEDs and short looms, a new loom to connect both rear lights to the number plate loom using lock connectors (fully removable if you ever needed to), and full how 2 fit guide, ive got a set of looms made just gotta drill the lights and they will be ready to go mate, all i ask is after you have fitted them to send me back your old inners in the packaging and box the new ones come in

Read that you need to switch of the 'cold startup diagnostics' for the license plate bulbs with vcds to prevent a bulb out warning/fault code. Is this only with LEDs. Only with incandescent. Both. Or not necessary at all when connected to that wiring?

when you change resistances/voltages in any OEM wiring, this will flag a fault. So when you add wiring for tail lights & tap into number plate wiring, you will need to knock out cold lamp diagnosis.
