yes, i got a link - and no, no errors, simply plug and play. the red wire you just tuck in - not used for ours. only one (T20 i think) screwdriver needed. love the way the drl fades back on after cancelling indicator, v cool. expensive but great - though VERY bright and take a few weeks to arrive from china:

think there's a group buy somewhere on this site, but i just stump up the cash.

These are the ones from the group buy. My drivers side has completely failed. So had to put the original units back on.

Have you got any thoughts into why it failed?

No idea. Checked the connections and they was fine. Half the LEDs worked and the rest wouldn't . Now none of the white LEDs work. Not the only person from the group buy who have encountered issues with them

I had the same issue - i tried all sorts to get it going and decided its not insulated from weather well enough. In a desperate attempted i snipped the ends of the red wire off (an inch in) and it magically came back to life. Hope this helps :yes:
