Aftermarket LED DRL bars

[Jwlj]

Yep
You also need the harness to move the drl from the headlight to the LEDs.
If you have bixenon, it's one harness, if you have halogen you need two harnesses.

I posted part numbers in another thread.
I think it's the same thread as the instructions.

Looks pretty easy.
I installed fogs in cars before, it seems to be the same procedure.
Cut, mount, wire

The install was very easy. The problem I had was the light holders were to big I had to cut some of the aluminum holder away. The streight ones should fit fine. To mount them I had to drill 2 holes for the studs and one for the wire.

I had seen the manual somewhere for the install of those LED modules. The manual called for removing the bumper cover and cutting out holes for the LED modules.

Which this makes sense - as the kit suggests a bezel is included.

Includes LED-lights, front and rear bezel.

If we have to supply power from the current DRL, we have a Xenon equipped car, so that should be simply enough.

Sadly it seems no one has found someone that can ship, plus $350+shipping is steep for just bling.

While we're at it... these are sharp as well!

i like the blue version of those. they also sell a separate wiring kit for those door sills if you add the welcome illumination light under the foot wells. the cost was high though. i think saw that either on the uk or australian mazda site at one time.

haven't ordered any, but found there's chinese knockoffs as well with electroluminescent backlights

and also other ones with led. i'm not digging the rectangle box display though. almost looks like an led scroll sign, which would be kinda cool if it did.

Lupi, You ordered the set from Germany or is that a phillips kit?
Looks great!

More pics?! With them on?

 

[Lupi]

Saw your pics. How hard is the install?

The streight LED DRLs are Super easy to install. I installed the "L" shape ones and had to cut the metal to make them fit. I installed the LED DRLs just drill two holes for the studs remove part of the under bumper cover to get your hand in there to put the nuts on the studs, and tapped the wires into the headlight DRLs

Thead to share pictures, links and any info you have for solutions you've found to install an LED DRL bar in our cars.

There are already posts here for the OEM ones available in the europe market.

Post any links you find.


Link to gallery from a Russian CX-5 Forum.
This actually came out pretty well. I don't see any information as to what LED bar was used nor did they provide a how to DIY.
Almost looks like a dealer is taking it upon themselves to provide it at point of sale.
