LED Adaptive Cornering Lanterns
The day off work and a previous 'fix' of aliexpress addiction resulted in me updating the cornering lights to LED today..
http://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/vneqVVrfI?af=138255236 It was very easy and took 10m minutes to do the pair, I removed the aircleaner to gain access on the offside but didn't need to do anything on the nearside. Work fine, bright and no errors, highly recommended for <£10. Last edited by snapdragon; 23rd April 2020 at 08:19 AM. |

Hey, amazing!!!
I replaced the front parking lights on my Q7 4L just now! No errors... However, I got errors on the DRLs. By chance did you change those bulbs yourself?

Yes a few of us did the DRLs. There is a thread somewhere.

Do they fade on and off like the standard bulbs? Or just illuminate instantly?

Yes they fade on and off. Not sure they fit the fogs my fogs are H7 I heard some are H11. I want to do the fogs (only using them as coming home lights) and waiting for bright LEDs that don't require external heatsinks or fans. Some have mesh which look promising but the bulb bases are too fat for the foglight housing so would need a hole making and due to the complex contours of the fog casing backs it is bound to leak water. Also the prices from China have gone up ~15% in 2016 due to the weak pound against the yuen

I have the mesh type in the A4 and they work great. I've never tried them in the A8 yet, it's on my job list and I'll report back.
Have you seen these LED's? www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291619914566
