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?

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?

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

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

Craig, what did you do to your rear lights to give them that look? Discovery 4 HSE
