AAC P13 QUALITY / YET ANOTHER THREAD
Just an FYI for those interested in AAC P13 LED DRL bulbs (non-plasma)
good news: lifetime replacement warranty bad news: You'll use the warranty You'll pay shipping to send them back their "out of stock" right now... I assume because of the frequent and numerous replacements. and.... they end up like this far too frequently - - (see pics below)

If you use the AAC DRL harness it bypasses the PWM (taking power from the side marker) and then you will no longer have that problem.

I've got the fieldgoal harness which I have been told is actually better... I also purchased the AAC harness but it wasn't "plug and play"... wasn't really a harness... just some wires..... so I went with the much better reviewed fieldgoal harness.....
and I'm not sure how a harness will prevent the LEDs from falling off the bulb. (see bottom pic above)
