It’s my wife’s car and loves it and calls her headlights R2D2 lights, because they dance blue on startup.

Looking good Mark

Nice find Mark, how do they compare over the standard units, output wise ? Do they actually work like matrix led units or are they simply led dip & main beam ?

As per Mr Tee, are they better ? the ones on my 405 are woeful

Yup they're a complete backwards step sadly

Damn shame they are a backwards step or I might have indulged.
Anyone in the UK done this yet?

Feedback? 2016 (L405) Autobiography in Black with Ivory - for ULEZ
2014 (L405) VSE in Black with Ivory
2011 (L322) VSE in Black with Ivory
2005 (3.2 V6) Porsche Cayenne in Black with Savanna
1999 (P38) VSE in Burgundy (?) with Sand

the ''backward step'' refers to the existing xenon l405 headlights....

@Mark,

so did you pay 1400 bucks or 1600 bucks?





there is also an interesting thread on rangeovers.net re the difeence betwen the alibaba and rd [italy] headlights..

mostly petty name calling on it but some good info.. ... - .- -.

They are 1400 bucks plus cheap shipping. I paid 1600 bucks for rush shipping. The seller is flexible on shipping options.

Thank you for the links Stan! And the kind words.

Alibaba is around 1400 and RDS out of Italy are almost double at 3200 bucks. I don’t think the rds lights dance on startup.

The alibaba seller shipped one set of defective headlights which the buyer protected with a credit card chargeback, but my lights and two others who bought from Alibaba haven’t had any problems. I would use a credit card for protection just in case. My wife loves the Star Wars R2D2 startup.

They are super bright and amazing. They don’t work like matrix headlights but the output is 10x brighter with a wide field of view bigger than oem lights, night and day difference. The adaptive brightness / high beam works wonderfully and with the increased field wide view you don’t need the left to right adaptive portion since the new lights field of view are massively wider and brighter and longer.

Thank you for adding the adaptive portion to your feedback. I would hate to lose this functionality.

One of the main problems I have with the OEM lights is that in Canada/USA the high beam halogen light does not turn on with the Bose on high beam. My 2002 ML320 did this when I owned it from new. These lights look like they fix that too.

Another thing to add to my Christmas list. I got the HVAC panel yesterday and it is a wonderful upgrade.

Do,you have a link to the grille? Dan. 🇨🇦 2013 L405 5.0 SCV8

Very nice, the price might come down in the future
