Latest update to my car.

I ordered these off eBay. They came in a two pack and fit perfectly. Took me about two minutes to install. Maybe not for everybody but I think it’s pretty cool and unique.

Nice...I actually purchased them. They're sitting on a shelf waiting to be installed. Right now it's a trifle warm in my garage in AZ in July. Waiting for a little cool down...probably in November...

BTW, can you share how you fixed/wired them? Probably the wiring is intuitive, but, did you drill a new hole for the projectors? Or fix them to the existing cutout for the puddle lights?

Thanks!

They are a direct replacement for the originals. No modifications or wiring is necessary. They plug in directly when you take the old ones out. I have seen some that attach elsewhere. If you bought that kind then I would highly suggest you replace with this style. Like I said, two minutes and both were installed.

They plug in directly to replace the factory lights. No battery necessary. Here is the link:

I have the door puddle lights, but haven't opened the package. Didn't realize they're plug/play. I also purchased another set too from Champled. They're cylindrical. I had an idea of fixing them to the bottom of the wing mirrors and feeding from those lights, but concerned about too much chopping up of the mirror bezels. I might instead look to use them in the trunk fed from the trunk light if I can get it to project onto the trunk deck when it is opened. These are the cylindrical ones:

They nice lights but a little more work, you'll have to remove the door card to fit them, the other ones are as they say plug & play, easy to remove the stock light & replace the new light ...

Yes, more work on the round ones. I have the door insert (easy install ones) too, just haven't installed them. I want to use the round ones in other places, and not the doors.

Best,

Steve

I believe it was a couple of weeks. Definitely worth it and I obviously still have the factory lights if I wanted to switch back for any reason. I was actually surprised at how easy the replacement was and how nice the results are.

Finally opened the box and installed my puddle lights (after sitting on a shelf for 6 months). Lazy on my part as I should have at least looked at them. As Roman says, a very simple plug/play. 5 minutes at the most. I still do have another aftermarket set that are not plug/play and I might try something creative with these.....once our air temps drop below 110*F.....

Just received mines they other day. Still haven’t put them in (same laziness on my part) but I’ll get to it in the next few days. Honestly, I never even knew there were lights down there till I seen that post 🤣🤣. I still have mirror L.E.D’s from 3 months ago I haven’t installed yet. My mind also been elsewhere since I seen my front bumper cracked and realized someone tapped me. Now I have to get that replaced.
