    Tiguan 2nd Gen DRL LED upgrade

    for those trendline and comfort line owners suffering from halogen headlights and DRL, have you tried this:
    KONIK PW24W LED DRL FOR 2017 VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN + PHILIPS CANBUS CONTROL UNIT | Blingwork Automotive Lighting

    if yes , what is your comment / experienceon the product?

    The LED DRL, but I have worked out that this particular one could be a stock LED DRL for Tiguan sold in the North America

    Someone wrote in another topic that this will work as a direct replacement, no need for CANBUS control unit:
    Xenon White Error Free PW24W LED Bulbs For BMW F30 3 Series Daytime Lights GA 843573625085 | eBay

    I am also looking at this company and their products:

    Especially this HID for the low beam:
    H7rc Xenon HID Kit Fits: Volkswagen Tiguan | deAutoLED

    It gives much better performance than any LED headlight.

    Wow that looks nice, is that easy to install? Is it just plug and play? or is it not as straight forward as that? i'm very tempted to get that too.

    Just be careful installing different bulbs into a reflector housing that you don't get a massive amout of light scatter.

    Here's a good video which shows the difference between reflector housings and projector housings:



    The position of the bulb in a reflector housing is a critical element to the design of the beam pattern. If you shift the point of where the light originates in a reflector housing this will change where the light gets reflected to (like into an oncoming vehicle for example).
