Most of these lights r not water proof, from what I've seen. That would b an issue. Second, they need about 12" to make a good circle, how high is bumper? 4-6"? Things to consider, glad people r thinking of new ideas. Ppl love em when they see them!

Did anyone ever get these to work purely off the door like the done light? The wiring listed in this thread is either constant on or ABL driven. Not a fan of either option.

Hi guys!
Something really weird is happening on my 2010 SS RS and I'm wondering if anybody had that issue... I'm not sure if I just got a bad batch of LED courtesy lights but I installed them and they were working perfectly fine but after only a couple minutes "on" they are dying!! I installed one, opened and closed the doors a couple time, started the car... After doing this for 2 minutes it "flickered", wasn't coming back "on" every time and finally never came back alive. I removed it , tested with a power supply and it's completely dead, even by applying current directly to the led "circuit" it won't come up (a little light is still emitted) I thought it was a bad one so I removed the door panel and switched it for the other one I had and it worked for a couple minutes so I thought everything was fine... I drove to work and it was working and then after showing it 3-4 times to people at work it did the same and died ?!?! I am clueless since it's a pretty easy install, only 2 wires exist for the door LED and everything else is working perfectly fine... What's your opinion? Bad batch? Or could this have something to do with the "RS" having HID and current or else could be different and too powerful? Thanks |

That's the directions I used. Works like a charm.

Thanks for the write up, Nick. I wish I had seen it before I purchased mine. I didn't get them from AAC, because I didn't want to pay for a warranty I was going to immediately void by putting in my own GOBO. I still paid twice what you did off of ebay, but I walked away with them in hand. That vendor also gave a lifetime warranty (that I voided).

Has anyone installed the courtesy lights in the underside of the door mirrors, and wire them so that they come on when you walk up to the car and unlock it?
