DRL lights for 2005/55 pre-facelift

Featured Replies

The surrounds the ring things which as you look at them at the front

Ah, Not too sure tbh. Never looked at them in great detail.

Can any one say how to replace the pre fl fog lights and what are the correct bulbs :-/

 

And the bulbs are H1?

I shall get some h1 leds sorted then

Cambus ones

Then need to get them done as drls

Cheers guys, I can confirm it's easy to get to the bulb once the small grill is removed. Shame I bought LED's that are too wide to fit in though :punch:

Don't make the same mistake as me and get bulbs too big for the light unit.

I have gone for the thin ones :-/

Which did you get?

Carista ment to be getting option to be able to dim the bulbs so developer says. Hopely so I can enable fogs as drls and turn them down to 60% brightness. Does anyone know the exact options to press to get them on the north american setting? Does it change temp from centigradw to farenheit on mfd?

I wonder if that has anything to do with my email to Carista a couple months ago, hmmm interesting!

i have been in contact with them as a tester and am running a beta version of it. i think they said in a couple of weeks it should be available in the beta version. i think the more people that email in theyve obviously thought to add it as an option to reduce the brightness. Great if they do!!

I emailed them earlier in the year about the same issue. I bought Carista for this very feature so was a little gutted when it wouldn't work, used VCDS instead in the end.

 

They replied asking if I could send them a VCDS scan of the car (or something similar) and they would look to add the feature.

 

That was back in March...
