Have any of you guys mentioned this to AAC? I distinctly remember being told the Plasmas fixed this. In fact, I know I still have a PM from one of them that says exactly that.

I'd love to hear what they have to say about their new and improved plasmas not being so "new and improved"

The adaptive harness does not prevent the PWM signal in auto mode.

I have the 3rd gen fieldgoal harness, and the regular p13w's failed within 2wks,they were a new set only used with the harness which supplies pure 12 volt power.
My upgraded plasmas had one led on the front fail within two wks.
The other plasma has lasted way longer then the reg p13w's over 2mth's
AAC customer service and Jonathan have been great at replacing the bulbs.

I just wish I didn't have to keep looking at the DRL lights waiting for a failure.
I love the look , the low power consumption, and will continue to buy from AAC its all about taking care of the customer.
