Fitted Xenons a few weeks ago and always hated the yellow DRLs, so until I go ahead with my 8p3 S3 conversion I thought I would replace them with some super bright cree DRLs
these were advertised as brightest ones on the market boasting 50W which is a lot for LEDs. I had some on my other cars but where only 5w ones so was expecting a lot from them and by heck they are bright. They were advertised as canbus ones but may throw up an error which I expected as the a3 has a very sensitive system.
1st one fitted against old
got an error straight away saying DRL was out but was still on so then I fitted next one and same hing happened again saying they were out but still on which is strange as canbus normally turns them off
both fitted and very bright photos don't do them justice
once done to get rid of the error I simply loaded up VCDS and coded the car to say it has LED DRLs just like facelift lights would be coded and error disappeared which I knew would happen so was happy about that.
Now for the new feature as I upgradedy CE from an F to an N from a 2009 A3 i now have the dimming of DRLS once blinker is active like all the new audis which I think is a good feature
Managed to catch the indicator on whilst taking the photo with the dimmer DRL
Just thought I would share my new features in case anyone else wanted them
thanks
