Default Quick question re: DRL's

Alright, mate of mine has found some gold on eBay and I just want to get some opinions, and whether or not anyone's tried these as experience stories would be great.

Due to my car NOT being a Titanium, it doesn't have DRLs, but it does have what looks to be bits of plastic to pop out the front bar where the DRLs would be in a Titanium.

So I'm looking at hooking up a set of these:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Car-LED-D...item416595fe3f

I want them to function as TRUE DRLs (so on & bright at any time when car is running, only dimming when the headlights are turned on) and to look pretty much like they were there from factory.

Thoughts?

Thanks mate, they're a bit cheaper too.

Also liking some of the other Mondeo stuff they've got, so in all seriousness I dunno whether to be thanking you or cursing you - I guess we'll just have to wait see how much I finally end up spending ;)

Anyone actually tried these, had them hooked up etc? Some "real life" experience or opinions with them would be cool.

Default Re: Quick question re: DRL's

I didn't think the Mondeo got sold on the US market, thought it was Euro/Aus/NZ markets only?

Anyway, I've spoken to someone who reckons for $200 I can't go too wrong, and I guess every group needs a guinea pig, so hopefully within the next week I'll be placing and order, and when they come I guess we'll see how it all pans out.

If people are interested I might even do a few pics along the way and a bit of a write up on the install to help others in future - as well (of course) as a bit of a review on what I think they're like - someone's gotta be the first and it looks like no one else here has done this mod yet?

Keen to see how this turns out Rik. Should look the goods mate. Wiring can be a b**** so take your time with it, or perhaps get an auto elec to fit it.

Might be worth finding out what shipping will cost and save yourself a few bucks.

Some say the control box that comes with it will automatically dim with headlights, so they should act the way you want them too.

Thanks for the link MAD.

I haven't ordered them yet, I don't know if any of you saw in "The Pub" there was a greys online auction for a NSW Ford dealer who had gone out of business - I was looking at a full Titanium front bar (complete with foglights, DRLs, wiring & grilles) - I was going to buy it but missed out in the end - went to bid at last minute and realised I didn't have an account for grays online :( I would have swapped out grilles & DRLs to my bar (the other bar was white) and had a Titanium front end. Wasn't anyone from here who scored it was it?

Now with Heathcote drags just a couple of weeks away I'll probably save money for that trip and order these after I get back.

I know what you're saying about the wiring Shav, however I should be ok, got a couple of people that know what they're doing who I'd trust to help out.

Default MC Mondeo Titanium DRL's

Hi All,

Can I please get an explenation on how the Daytime Running Lights (DRL's) function on the Titanium models.

Do the DRL's dim (reduce intensity) when parkers / headlights are on?
Or do they turn off all together when the parkers / headlights are on?

In my previous Passat 125TDI Highline with Bi-Xenon Headlights I could activate DRL's from the MFD.

However there does not appear to be any functionality available for the DRL's or am I mistaken?

There are a genuine few kits available in UK that I would like to retrofit to my Zetec EcoBoost!

Default Re: MC Mondeo Titanium DRL's

Would also be interested to know how they work.

I've found aftermarket kits (refer http://fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=11365623 ) but haven't really had the spare cash to order a set yet due to unforseen expenses. Seriously hoping to put an order in before July is finished though.

Do you have a link to the genuine kits you speak of, definitely interested to compare the quality & pricing of them to the aftermarket ones I'm looking at before I make a purchase.

Found the answer, saw an MC Titanium this evening and the DRL's are dimmed with reduced output when headlights are on. Will now look futher into the genuine or aftermarket plug and play kits. Will keep you up to date.

Sorry mate, no link. My bad.
The genuine Kits I refer to is jus buying the OEM DRL's and making your own harness. But with all the stuffing around, it would be easier to get the chinese copies as they look near identical, function in the same way, are glass just as per the OEM DRL's. Plus they have a plug and play wiring harness to boot!

No problems.

I asked someone in the know how much for genuine ones, he's an auto electrician and came back with a price around the $700 mark for the pair, no harness - from Ford themselves.

It was then him who linked me to the eBay copies for around the $200 mark including a harness, bit of a no-brainer really.

As there is quite a bit of interest in this topic, I wonder if the mods could merge the three (3) current / active threads into one? I just thought we could all get value out of everyone elses experiences / ideas around this topic. Am I asking the right thing here or is there another way to get the threads merged?

Hey guys,
I have first hand experience concerning this particular post. I recently bought a set of these. Paid about $130 USD including postage from China. Check out this website. www.alibaba.com and type in search for Ford Mondeo DRLS. They offer silly prices for these DRLs for example only of you purchase a quantity of 100 or so. Ignore this like I did. Just drop them an e mail asking price for one set. Do a little negotiation and bingo, get yourself a deal. Took a gamble buying from China but it paid off. The instructions were in "pigeon" english and a little confusing. A few e mails later, the Chinese were fantastic and helpful. Exactly the same as original parts (well they look the same anyway even down to the Made in Slovakia on the rear) for a quarter of the price and so easy to install. They look fantastic fitted and compliment the Zetec. If any one needs any advice then drop me a line. I'll be more than pleased to tell you how to install. Currently working on rear view camera and auto dimming mirror with reverse camera display. It ain't easy. Will assist others with this too once I've sorted it. For your info, before anymore questions get asked on this subject, the DRLs stay on with dipped headlight and the DRLs just dim. THIS IS NOT ILLEGAL IN AUSTRALIA. If you do want them to go off, I know how to do that too.

Welcome Tom Jones!!!

Please feel free to share your experiences, we are all eager to do the same.
What state do you live? Did you remove the bumper or just the headlights for the install? Also does the black plastic infill just clip in / out? Or do you have to cut it out and then glue the DRL's on?
I will send you a PM soon as keen t buy a set that "DIM's"...

Glenn

Default Re: Quick question re: DRL's

No, the loom came with the parts. 3 cables came from the loom. One yellow, one black and one blue.
The yellow connects to the engine fuse box (ignition), so DRLs only come on with ignition, the black connects to ground on the suspension strut and the blue I tapped into the side light wire so when side lights come on, DRLs dim.

I had to remove the bumper and front passenger side headlight. Can be done alone which I did. Remove the black blanking plastic parts to the front bumper. Just give them a pull and they pop off as only plastic welded at rear. Then with new plastic holders, I liquid nailed them in. Once dryer, pop in the DRLs and thats when I connected them up and hey presto, job done.

I've made a few purchases through alibaba without a problem. It's only been the one company though.
I was tentative on my first purchase so I asked for a reference. They gave me the contact details of a company in the US, so I rang and checked with them before going ahead with it. I always pay with paypal too.

Thanks whitetdci. May be the same lights;wouldn't think there'd be too many aftermarket manufacturers for such a relatively low volume item.

^^ These ones - can anyone confirm if any of these work as true DRLs, dimming when you turn headlights on, and going bright again with headlights off?
