Default Up-graded my DRLs

The original set of DRL's I fitted a few years back had stopped working & due to health issues I just could not be ar5ed to sort them out, sad but that's the truth.


Anyway, with the health issues far enough behind me I decided that the DRL's needed sorting.

As the bumper had to come off I took the opportunity to 'clean' the headlights, this picture does not do them justice


Here are the results: (hope the picture displays)





If I can maintain the enthusiasm I might get round to wiring in a GSM unit for the cabin heater, bought the unit a year ago

Looking good. I do think the facelift looks good with DRL.. I did mine before. I know some dont like them, but each to there own. My tourer is my every day car and I think this day and age DLR are a good safety feature.

What DRL’s did you use, they certainly look like they should be there.

I noticed these on one of my daily walks, fitted on a Merc', sorry not sure which one as I've forgotten.

Purchased from Fleabay -> https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291612701556 <-



On the Merc they have chrome trim at both ends, so the outboard trims may be suitable to cover that small section of black abs that still remains/shows.
