Hi mate they might have just been a faulty batch, but Argo are pretty good and refunded me with no issues.
I ended up buying some more that have only lasted 11 months so I’ve bought some more expensive ones from Lush lighting in case it’s a case of you get what you pay for
Let us know how you get on with them when they arrive and make sure they’re a tight fit in the bulb holder so they don’t drop into the light unit

And do look ok but not mega bright and do dim when you turn on side lights

RE: Argo Drl's - StevesAstra - 13:th-Aug-2018

Do all the above need resistors for the J 5 door? Wanna get rid of the standard bulb, got some error free ones off fleabay and up with a bulb check message straight away.


RE: Argo Drl's - Skemess - 18:th-Aug-2018

HI ALL

Is there actually any Led DRL's that don't need resistors?
Thanks
