TransporterHQ (THQ) Aftermarket Headlights
One thing to bear in mind with LED lights is that they won't melt frost or snow from the lens due to lack of UV rays that you get with halogen or HIDs. I've read that some OEM units have a way of circulating engine bay heat to combat this.....not sure how true that is though.

All led in the UK at least.
Sounds like he’s describing the THQ lights?
Didn’t they go through a stage of making xenon lamps, as well? That might be what the mechanic was talking about?

Does this include the rear lights also?.
Similar to fronts, the main sidelight/brakelight is LED but indicator and reverse are standard lamps

Im thinking of purchasing some of the transporter hq drl's, in jan 2019 they will have in stock the v2's which have sequential indicators.
Im sure lots of forum users have the V1's , whats everyones thoughts on them and are they any good?
Im thinking that any upgrade would be better than the H4s i currently have

Thats a shame, I've never seen any at night but I've seen plenty in the daytime and i thought they look great in daytime.
Which philips led's do you recommend and do they throw up any errors?

I thought I would add my THQ light journey on the end of this thread Or should I have started a new thread ?
I ordered the new lights from TransporterHQ 2 tuesdays ago and went for free delivery which the site said would be 3 to 4 days anyways they did not show up so this monday I sent an amail to THQ and recieved a swift reply to which they had disapeared from Parcelfarces tracking and it seems abducted by aliens .
Andrew then dispatched a new set on a 24 hour delivery which I recieved yesterday. (Thanks THQ for sorting it out quickly .)
so a couple of hours in the drizzle and job done I was surprised how easy it is to do apart from the trim clips appear to be made from cheese and i broke one but had some spares so no worries there .
I also made contact to local to me Depron Donkey to do the coding so hopefully soon they will work as intended .
When Darkness decends I will get some photos of the hopefully improved lighting. I did a beam shot of the old lights so will post those at the same time .

You did exactly the right thing by not starting another thread
Photos of lighting are always pretty meaningless as they depend on the exposure setting of the camera but I'd be interested to hear your subjective opinions about them.

what coding have you had to do ? I thought the THQ lights were plug and play ? no coding required ?
