Finally YELLOW DRL on G20 LCI in US

Hey guys,
so good news is now you can change Daytime Running Light to yellow or whatever colors easier than the PRE LCI model.
you need to change only one board, and you don't have to remove tire, or bumper, drill parts to to remove the board.

On May, I ordered one and was about to replace to yellow drl board but turned out I got the EU version, and they did not have US version yet.

This week, FINALLY, got the US version, and did not work completely, but checked with the manufacturer and they will fix and send the part again.(Hope it works this time, Will update on the full working video then)

Just FYI
First photo is EU style board
Second, OEM board
Lastly, Partially working Yellow DRL for now.

check out the installation video step by step in only 3 mins.

Attached Images

My set were US boards, so I'm guessing they are just swapping the actual LED's. I don't know if anyone else has even done that yet.

Oh then.. I guess it should work.. unless LED's resistance isn't the same as OEM one.

Good job. It does not look as good against the Brooklyn gray paint as I expected.
