On a D3 the sidelights are Red/Orange on the RH side and Red/Black on the LH side. Not worked on a D4 but LR tend to keep the same coding.

The other way of finding the sidelights is that they tend to have a unique colour whilst the dipped and main are variations of blue.

Cheap multimeter would help.

Got any pictures of the DRLs?

Is part of the light within 400mm of the outermost part of the vehicle (wheel arch spat on a D3/4)? If so they are OK.

Just took me 2 hours to put that on dont know how you get it any bigger Shocked

They are Phillips daylight 4 £59.99 off the bay Thumbs Up
Really easy to do 3 wires + - and a wire to your sidelight to detect when lights are on so DRLs go off.

I tried different positions but didnt fancy cutting the bumper but wanted them in a similar position to the OEM ones.

The kit comes with small self tappers but when i was deciding where to put them i kept attaching them with industrial double sided foam tape ( like the type used to fasten interior mirrors)
But it is that good on the last fasten i couldn't get em off so thats how they are fastened Very Happy
hopefully for good Thumbs Up
The whole job even with deciding where to put em took about 2 hours( took me longer trying to get the pics on here) Whistle

Take the pictures, save them on your computer. log into D3, go to gallery and use the Beta uploader, really easy to do. If you still have problems post again and I will send you my e mail for you to send me the photos and I will post them for you.
Would like a close up of where they actually are on the bumper. Looking to fit some to mine but waiting to see if wifes new car has them fitted, if not will buy two sets together.

Russell will get some more pics tommorow when its light .

I managed to put the small control box in the battery box and route all the cables round the webasto and into the front of the radiator area where a bit of welding wire helps to fishthe cables upthrough the gap behind at the corner of the rads to behind the front bumper Thumbs Up
