Hey TrevG. I ordered the white ones as thought the red may end up being too dark. The video link is attached.

XCOsmium - thanks for taking the time and trouble to load these. I ordered mine on Sunday from Amazon. Indicator LEDs arrived today, brake LEDs scheduled for tomorrow. Fitting planned for this weekend..! Like you, decided on the white for brake lights for the same reason. Thanks again for the share.

No worries. Swapping them out is straight forward. Just a black plastic spring clip to untwist and the bulb holders then just twist out. Have had no errors 1 week on and bulbs working fine. Good luck with fitting

Looks great! Did you have to install an extra fuse for the second fog light?

Thanks !
No , the 12v is on both sides , just the non driver side doesn’t have a bulb or bulb holder !
