Excellent addition to my ongoing custom features. Excellent quality, Did install HIDs on the high beams and had to splice the LEDs into the running lights vs the low beams due to the day time headlights feature on the Civic. Packaged well, shipped quick.

10 L.E.D. Side Mirror Turn Signal Blinker Review

I put these on must 1982 chevy truck. What a nice upgrade the installer also wired the lights to come on when the brakes are pressed. It looks better than then new trucks, and cadillac's that have this factory installed. We had to take the mirrors off, and drill a few holes, but it was worth the effort.

The one I got didn't work, but in trying to figure out why it didn't work, I discovered that it has a VERY DANGEROUS flaw in it's design: If the control unit fails the daytime running lights will not work AND YOUR REGULAR HEADLIGHTS WILL FAIL ALSO!!! If this DRL kit were to fail while driving at night YOUR HEADLIGHTS WILL SHUT OFF!!
Do not buy this product, and if you have it you should disconnect it IMMEDIATELY.

Well, I believe this kit would be nice, only it didn't say anything about needing to connect it to a spark plug wire as well as the rest of the connections. Well, my wife's 2006 Toyota RAV4 Limited didn't come with daytime running lamps, but it also doesn't have spark plug wires! My 2009 Subaru Forester even has spark plug wires! This was a learning experience for me, as in place of spark plug wires, this Toyota engine had a large rectangular "box" that fit over all 4 in-line spark plugs, and thus connected the spark plugs to the ignition via the one large unit. I wasn't going to attempt disassembling (if even possible) this technology, so, I don't have DRL still on the RAV4.
The parts inside the box appeared well made, not some pretend plastic crud, but again, I didn't get to connect the kit to know if it works!
Chances are likely that you will have wires going to your spark plugs, but I suggest checking now that I've seen what I have. It would have been nice to know before I ordered the kit, then I wouldn't have had to return it!

CIPA 08800 Add-A-Signal Arrows Review

CIPA 08800 Add-A-Signal Arrows
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These signal arrows were installed on the auxillary mirrors for the SUV, used when pulling a camper trailer. This gives very high visability for other vehicles when I want to turn, especially for cars driving alongside the trailer. The wiring was done with polarized plugs and receptacles (Mono speaker jacks and plugs really.), so I can remove the mirrors and disconnect the wiring when using the SUV alone.
Since the arrows are highly visible to me, they serve as a reminder to stop signaling after a turn, instead of having my dear wife smack me upside along the head.
The arrows were easy to install on the mirrors, the wiring was simple, and the cost is very reasonable. The only concern is that the wires with the arrows are a very small gauge -- I hope they can stand up under the normal "wear and tear". Note: I do "tie" the auxillary mirrors to the stock mirrors, to keep from losing them while traveling. Otherwise, I have recommended these arrows to my camping friends.

Was a little apprehensive at first due to the cost. Since installation, I have changed my mind. This product is awesome! LEDs are very bright and function as Day Time Runners. Very easy to install. Placed on a 2001 C320 Mercedes Benz. Gave a whole new custom look to the front end of the car. Would, (and probably will), purchase again.

GE 28213 Elusion Lighting, LED Interior or Exterior Auto and Truck Lighting System in Green Review

GE 28213 Elusion Lighting, LED Interior or Exterior Auto and Truck Lighting System in Green
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
To be honest, I didn't know what to expect when I placed my order. I had high hopes, being that it was made by GE, however, I also know that LEDs can vary dramatically based upon their output angle, and brightness.
I bought these w/o the intention of using them in my car, but for halloween, as part of decorations, depending on their brithness, if they would be used to accent a decoration, to be placed in a fake pumpkin that can't use regular candles, or something of the general thought. These arrive in a blister pack exactly as pictured, with two mini spotlights, clear plastic being just about 3/8" diameter, and a little over an inch long with 4" wire lead capped with a connecter to use with their wiring harness. These also derive on the general basis of yellow plus red =`orange, being 3 yellow and 1 red led inside the casing fasing out the barrel.
Although I can't give a true review based upon a car's electric system, being 14.4 volts, and capped at whatever amp fuse you decide to use, I'm going with traditional batteries. Just from soft wiring, I've found that 3AAA batteries in loop offer some, but little light, while a 6v lantern battery giving off obvious more light, I will probably go with several 9v batteries in loop as a power source. Anyway, these aren't blindingly bright, in comparison to running a series of 5 higher quality LEDs on the same 3AAA looped battery pack, that gives off at least 20x more light.
Take this review as you want. I personally wouldn't use this to light up my car, as I would definately save up and find a lot higher quality LED lighting product with wider angle LEDs with more lumen, not to mention a system that appears to be more expandable than just relying on specialized clips that cost you extra, or having to cut and splice wires to avoid buying extra clips. If however, you're good at general electricity, and you have a small project that you think this might work for, and you get it at a price that you won't be dissapointed at having to possibly throw them away at the realization these aren't for you, then it's worth a little fun at experimenting. If however, you need a product to rely on, look for something that specifically lists the LEDs' viewing angle and it's lumens.

Flexible LED Light Strip - Red LEDs - Clear Tube - 2.125" Review

Flexible LED Light Strip - Red LEDs - Clear Tube - 2.125
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought these to put on my mirrors to add more visibility to my turn signals and to serve as a reminder if I forget to cancel. They work beautifully, bright enough to be seen by people behind me but not so bright that they hurt my own eyes. I haven't tried them at night yet, but daytime was the main thing I was after. I stuck them to the upper outer edge of my mirrors and routed the wires down into the headlamp where the directional connectors are. It took a few minutes to determine which wire I needed to connect to, but it was pretty obvious thanks to the color coding. I wrapped the mirror stem with black tape to hide the wires and then wrapped tape around to secure the leads to to the other wires going into the headlamp. Looks great and does the job I intended just fine. Note: I used clear silicone to seal the open portions of the LED enclosures before sticking them to the mirrors, as per the online instructions.

Black Adjustable Shift Light w/ Red Light Review

Black Adjustable Shift Light w/ Red Light
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I put this in my 04 Jetta & am glad i did
The black tube has a decidedly sinister appearance perched upon the dash that i like.
I cannot comment on ease of installation as i had a garage do it.
Although i did mount the device myself before taking it to be installed so it would be exactly where i wanted it. I simply used velcro & it works great.
The light functions perfectly, flashing at the RPM setting you select with the dial at the rear of the tube. Flash is bright & easy to see even in daylight.
Light will stay on until you shift, nice.
I would like to see an optional & adjustable beep to accompany the flash of light, as an audible alert in case your eyes are diverted would be nice.
But it is what it is & thats good enough for me, sharp looking form & flawless functionality.

HELLA 010043801 Universal Rectangular LED Slim Daytime Running Light Kit Review

HELLA 010043801 Universal Rectangular LED Slim Daytime Running Light Kit
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.

Putco 980076 Premium Automotive Lighting Premium LED Dome Light Review

Decent product. I installed in my Honda Fit. The kits are not totally correct for all models but I was able to work with what was in the box. The light output is pretty good and I like the fact that these draw less current than stan standard bulbs. Installation is pretty straightforward. These lights are really blueish in color; my wife says the inside of her car now reminds her of a terrarium. I don't plan on getting a kit for my Yukon XL because the price is way too high and the light isn't really the color I want in the big, family vehicle.
