Default Light uprades

I bought my Q7 March 2013 and have been watching the rear LED lights on ebay ever since. Last week I decided to purchase them and yesterday I got round to fitting them. (My car usually is shiny clean but it's our winter and it was just washed a few days ago, though you wouldn't think it :O )

They arrived in 3 days from Germany

I bought the full LED license plate lights as well, not the bulbs but the full unit as the bulbs wouldn't work for some reason.

I also have the LED indicator / side lights which I bought after seeing one of you posting a picture with them on your car

Looks good - have you a link to the items you bought?

Was it simply plug & play?

Yeah no problem

I bought the front LED's last year from Hong Kong. They have came down in price a bit since then:

The rears are from Germany:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1808614395...84.m1497.l2648

The fronts are simply plug and play, they have control modules for each side, the original plugs from the indicators and side lights plug in to these then there are wires coming out going into the LED's.

The rears are a bit more difficult but not too hard to work out. There is additional wiring and a control module. The original plugs plug into the control module and there are wires coming out to the LED's units. There is a plug adapter with blue and black wires, the license plate light plug goes into this then the other side back into the license plate module (must take an earth from this). Then there is a length of wire you need to route from the boot to the rear fuse box for a positive feed.
