Can I correct my own optimism regarding the title of this thread...the lights are designed and distributed by Dectane. However as far as I can work out they are actually made by a company called Sonar in a country starting with T and ending in N...any guesses?

Interesting... the packaging looked awfully similar to the box I got my LEDs from Rottec.



It's nice to see another option. Personally I like having a little more clear lens and having a single row of LEDs for back/brake lights (looks cleaner) vs clusters on the side lke below. However, I do like the LED fog option and bigger turn signal.

That package is very familiar. Mine were packed exactly like that except they were split into 2 boxes. I purchased them from Ray. The lenses are a bit different looking and its hard to compare the two unless I see them both in person. I would guess that these are not manufactured in Germany especially at that price. I think they look more closer to the OEM ones but hard to tell. Looking forward to peoples opinions when they arrive and are installed. So far I am happy with the ones I purchased (also made in Taiwan) but I have nothing to compare them to yet.

I didn't read all of the post....are they plug and play yet or are there still issues with warning lights?

Which supplier has had best results?

Just paid for these after getting the confirmed proforma invoice. €393.15 delivered as it is an export so local german 19% tax doesn't apply.

Still no confirmed delivery date yet though

Interesting that they charge even though product is not in stock. Many of the US vedors don't charge your cc until product ships.

They didn't request payment from me straight away - I just sent payment to make sure I am well up the line when the product lands in.
