    Only found your channel today as I’ve just bought a fiesta for my first car and need you to come back with some new mods mate😂

    This video inspired me to change all my bulbs for a full conversion from autobeam. The difference and quality is amazing. The indicators are just ridiculous

    Lol, you have some spare time and wanted to save money.. fair play! Got the autobeam.. they are perfect! When the mist of the rain is flicking up, I am sure the people behind can see me.. with the lights so high up!

    Save yourself the hassle and get the autobeam performance LED bulbs 👌. They are sooo bright and have a 5 year warranty. I've probably saved over £100 now because they were able to send out replacement bulbs to me so it is worth it in the long run 👍.
    Will say that diode looks good. I noticed with my car the instrument cluster lights and sidelight symbol on the dash flicker initially when I put the lights on. Happened when I fitted the performance brake lights in. A diode might help fix that.
    Think you've been watching too much paranormal programmes, made you paranoid 😂. Found it funny you adding the COD hit marker sounds 😊.

      @@R23OWL they also sell on ebay which is free delivery and includes warranty. It's a little more money listed on there but might work out cheaper if you compare the added tax and delivery on their website 👍

    Love the video mate as per! However I would just say you could save the hassle and buy Autobeam LEDs. Run them in my MK6, they don’t flash like strobes as they draw enough current, whether that’s due to the number of diodes or whether they have a resister system built in, they work!! Build quality is fantastic, they’ll last a lot longer than cheapo eBay bois too. Plus they’re a lot brighter than any I’ve ever used, which is perfect if you have tinted tail lamps!

    @ R23 OWL, Thanks for the vid mate, just fitted my resistors and they work fine, just need to solder on the diodes for the break lights.
    Just 1 question though, can I shorten the wire that is already attached to the diode? or does it need to stay the length it arrived as??

      Far too expensive for new drivers, especially if you're young. Not worth it at all. Unless you're absolutely minted and a few thousand for insurance alone is nothing to you, don't bother.
