These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • 986Forum: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I just upgraded the stock brake lights to LED. I LOVE the new look! I know that not everyone agrees, but if you like it and have been thinking about it, it's VERY easy. https://youtu.be/FA47_mIHbyA

POST 2Original post

I really wish they sold those here in the UK, I'd snap a set up, but it's the import charges that kills it for me. They look beautiful.

Oh I didn’t realize that. Figured there would be a bunch from China that would ship. Extra for coronavirus free ones, of course

POST 4Original post

I think they look awesome! What was the $$ expense, if you don't mind my asking? Have you considered the headlights... you know, the newer look with the 4-square LED setup? That would look clean. Great looking dog! I'm not comforted that on the box Taiwan incorectly was spelled. Keep the vids coming! Thanks!

Thanks! There were about $630 from eBay. I put the link in the description. They don't sell these exact ones on Amazon, but I put a link to a cheaper option via Amazon there as well (under $300). About the lights... waiting on Fred's lights and I'll be doing another video on that!

I’m looking at doing this same upgrade, thanks for posting the vid! Curious what headlights you’ll be going with, the only aftermarket set I really like the look of are these: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You’re welcome! I’m just sticking with stock headlights for now, but I may do something similar to the ones you linked there eventually. I haven’t heard any great reviews on them though.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
