Not on the F-Sport. There is a thread dedicated to the fog lights.

So the high beams don't work? Not sure I'd do this modification if it meant I'm losing functionality.

On the low beams, can you not adjust them so they point in the USA standard direction?

It's because the cutoff is backwards tot he of RHD cars like ours, i.e. the high point of the beam pattern will be on the left as opposed to ours, which is on the right. I hope that makes sense lol.

The F-Sport headlight doesn't have AFS feature and the wiring also different that's why the high beam won't work. If you have non F-sport high beam will work plug and play and if you have Lux models both high beam & AFS will work.

Were you able you to get the high beams to work?
They work fine like I said just re-wiring and I will post that later

I would say they have better visibility than HID even though I read somewhere here they LED are less lumens than HID and that was actually wrong in my opinion as those are damn good

they work fine it is a matter of re-wiring and ill post DIY later

Exactly thats how it looks.

brand new will cost $2700 each. with Sewell discount and re-wiring again will cost more and you won't be able to sell it since you are doing a re-wiring.

they do now. when I first plugged it they didn't work with auto level system because I had to re-wire.

Ok so a couple of questions... Does part of the low beam come from the square portion under the projector? Also, the AFS does not work on the F-Sport since we don't have it or do these lights make it functional?

those LED's look real clean. wish there was an easier conversion though. having to do custom wiring to get your high beams to work doesn't sound very tempting
