So am I correct in assuming you just wire them up to the reverse lights and brake lights for them to activate and switch between red and white light?

If so, looks like an awesome mod. Tom

Yes, that is correct Flashman... The reverse light function on the D3 reflector replacements are rubbish (not as bright) compared to the FF reflector replacements! Don't know why?

The only thing i wired up on the FFRR was the reverse LED's as IMHO that was the only poor light on the rear of my car... And i did not like the way the red LED's (side or brake) looked when lit up, on my car... Thumbs Up

How bright are the white leds, do they improve rearward vision much?

The red lights on the FF are not wired in as i did not want them... Only wanted extra reversing lights, as they are not very bright on a FF Twisted Evil

And on the Disco the side lights are wired up as the standard rear lights are quite high up, so they work as extra rear side lights Thumbs Up As the reverse lights are nice and bright on the Disco & the white LED's in the reflectors are not as bright as in the FF, i haven't bothered with them...

The main thing on both cars was to illuminate more of the red off the rear of the cars & put the mandatory reflectors under the bumper out of normal sight Thumbs Up

If anyone is interested they also do them in red only if you just want to wire up additional brake lights.

That's what I was thinking, and looks more in keeping with the traditional look, although I do think they look great on Craig's silver RR as it has been de-coloured everywhere else. I agree that the reverse lights on the RR are poor, maybe a stronger LED bulb would help. Tom
