Sweet! I saw these in action on an RX on a recent trip to Asia.

How much work was it to add on the feature?

Ha! For a second I thought about that but thought that I would have to pay expensive air ticket too lol



A friend of mine found a body shop guy who ordered the lights for me. They said the lights were ordered from a vendor from LA. The lights finally came after about 7 weeks.

They are direct plug and play. The installation was pretty involved though. Took 3 hours to install!

The total cost is about $1500, totally worth it
No word about whether the front is plug and play too. I'm guessing it is but I want to be fairly sure. We need a guy like "760A" to know more info. He is the man!

As for which vendor it is, I don't really know unfortunately. My friend only told me to pay and wait for the lights to arrive.

Unfortunately for us early adopters, the 2017s will probably have them.
