HELLA 010043801 Universal Rectangular LED Slim Daytime Running Light Kit Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I actually give Hella 3 1/2 stars for their effort on this item. Why? First of all I have never been disappointed with Hella yet I am disappointed with this Hella product. The product. First the good: The connectors from the DRLs to the wiring harness are typical Hella quality - excellent! Now the bad: 1)The lights, both housing and lens are plastic. Will the plastic lens hold up and not break or chip to all the stuff that the front end of the car meets everyday on the road? Who knows? I covered mine with X-pel so there may not be a problem. 2)There is NO mounting hardware of any kind provided (save 4 screws) by Hella - NONE! The instructions indicate that the lights should be mounted from the back with the provided screws (provided that your vehicle has a sturdy/drillable/accessible mounting surface BEHIND the DRLs. 3) There are NO wire connectors provided by Hella that would connect the provide wiring to the provide electrical relay. Want to hook up your Hella DRLs to the relay so they work as DRLs? Go buy some connectors. 4) As you go through the installation instructions the pictographs (typ) indicate to install this or that now - only to read "this or that" is NOT INCLUDED IN THE PACKAGE! 4) The housing is actually a curved trapezoid on the long axis and the lens is also curved on the short axis. Be careful how you mount these or you may not get the look you want. 5) I believe the provided LEDs are "Audi Bright" but they are VERY directional. Carefully check final mounting to be sure you get the look you want. $278.00! Take your chances.
