they are not as bright as the headlight indicators when you stand in front of the FF, however when you move to either side the fronts lose brightness and the mirror lights get brighter..

Yours look a lot more bright and vibrant than mine. I’ll see if I can get a vid up. You can barely see them flashing in front of the car even to the side it was pretty lack luster and it was over cast here. If you can’t really see them from the front or a 45* then these are pointless. These are designed to be able to see the dynamic sweep from those angles. 2014 FF Autobiography 5.0 SC

nice job Andy....also what you have to remember is that this prolonged spell of good weather is un-usual and when we get our normal dull winter weather these lights will show up even more.. ... - .- -.

Seems like mine are definitely dimmer than the both of yours. I’m not happy with mine and will be looking to get a refund.

Yeh, got mine through Powerful. They do not not look right on yours Horse, far too dim. Assume the connectors are the right way round and fully pushed home? SDV8 AB MY 2019

Hey Andy thanks for confirming. On mine there is actually a bit or wire coming off the unit and then a plug. The plug looks the same as the built in socket on the OEM units so it can only plug in and “click” one direction. Not a good pic of the plug but they are the units with the wiring showing.

Hi Horse, worth pursuing as they may be duff units. Yeh, the plug should only fit one way as it is rounded on one side. Feel free to use my video to prove what they should look like! :thumbsup SDV8 AB MY 2019
