Hi, I`m from Europe, having US version. I really do not like these orange side panels, do you think it is easy to replace them with white ones from european version (my xenons are ok so I consider taking these panels from some cheap non-xenon donor)? Or would it be better to get european xenon lamp and replace the whole lamp?
I've seen it done both ways. From what I remember (it's been years) the orange reflector is easily removed. The hardest part of the entire job is just removing the giant plastic lens from the housing. Once you're in there everything is simple enough.
Alright!! I'm holding you to that! 🤣 My brother is doing something similar for his 9-3. He has an 06 Aero that we are about to facelift. He ordered the 18” LED strip. Think that is too long? Great content! Keep it coming! 😁
I figured 18” would be too long but there isn't anything between 12” and 18” on the TRS website. Figured we will probably have to wrap the extra in black tape. He wants to do the color change but it's 100 dollars for the strip and any extra 70 for the controller. I think he's going to stick with the white LED. Are yours the switch backs? And if they are do you plan to wire the switch back?

@@austin8607 yep. Too long. 12" or 14" is the proper length. I go over it in this video.

@@austin8607 oh god, that tacky crap. I hate RGB. Mine are just the profile pivot switchbacks. Non sequential. Yes, I'll show how I wired them.
Horrible job :D but worth publishing in "another saab group" :D
I'm only capable of doing horrible jobs.
