I've done business with Dan in the past... I have his puddle lights... Just found out about this ... As soon as I verify the temp on the white mine are ordered... And I am gonna upgrade to the new puddle lights too.

The products are excellent, he is personable, and his customer support is top notch!
BIGMac, how easy were the puddle light to install? Thinking about getting them. Are you happy with them?

Snap-out...Snap-in.... Way easy. he has a video posted on it.  I paid $98 a year ago... now a better version is $67.  There are cheaper ways, but not as hassle free!

I ordered the DRLs and the upgraded puddle lights...Just got the tracking number.

Spoke with Dan: The white light in the DRLs is 5K color temp and the amber turn signal part is a match for the OEM..... also he relates that he is still putting final touches on the both the install instructions and video (for DRLs), but anticipates they will be ready by the time I get the DRls and upgraded puddles. He said just to call him for any questions on the install... if there's no video at the time I install I'll try to do a "How To".... surfed around his website for a while too, and it seems he has customers in over 72 countries!
 
I just ordered the silver LED DRL's and the puddle lamps. First mod of the year!  Bring on spring!  I just hope I didn't jinx myself into 6 more weeks of winter like that stupid groundhog.

I did the non hassle free option and cut open the puddle lamp module to install some leds from Amazon for $8. Took me about an hour from start to finish. I am very interested in the new DRL kit. I wonder how it wires into the turn signal. Do you have to take the bumper cover off to install? If it requires the bumper to come off and more wiring, then it's a definite turn off for me.

Thank you good sir. Looks like I'll be ordering these this week.
 
Thanks for this!! My passenger side light is out and rather than replace with an oem bulb I think I will just order the DRL replacements!!

Nope! Bumper on and about 30 mins start to finish! You actually access the light by unscrewing the wheel well rubber/plastic. Much easier than taking off the bumper.
 
I got my shipping number today.  I should have them this weekend.  I guess I just gave myself something to do if it is warm enough outiside.
 
I've had mine (in silver) for over a week now just staring at me!  Been too cold and messy to install, driving me crazy, must install now!!!

NP... I talked with Dan and as of shipping he didn't have the video or written instructions done yet, but told me to just call for install questions.... so I was planning on another "How To" for the SHO crowd here.
 
OK!... Got the package.  Dan sent it 2nd day USPS without request!  He's the man! You can left click any image to enlarge it.

Here's the new Gen Puddles... They have a much larger LED, a resistor built in on the back, a color temp of 5500K, and are 8x brighter than OEM. Also the license plate lights...which look too short... the packaging is fancy compared to my first purchase.
I'll get some comparison shots of these versus the first gen when I install later.


Here's the actual DRL/turn switchbacks. They appear very well made, are labeled RH and LH (RH has a much longer wiring tail.


Here's the wiring harness and controller for the system.  Controller is sealed aluminum with the attachment tapes already on the back as in the Edge video, all the connections are liberally waterproofed throughout the kit... I reviewed the Edge instructions, but still had a couple of questions since the wing is asymmetric and I want to verify the fuse to be replaced by the "H".  So I sent my questions to Dan with the pic below in email.... so I'm sure about the connections before I dismantle the wheel well liners for access.  I hate doing a job twice!  The kit included four crimp type wire taps and 6 wire ties also.


More during and after the install.
