How to Install 2015-2017 Ford Mustang RGBWA™ DRL LED Boards by Diode Dynamics

[@TheManicorn69]

May I suggest you just provide your boards attached to a direct replacement mount so we don't have to bust out the dremel? Should be a relatively cheap part to reproduce and would sure be a huge benefit to the end user...especially if someone wanted to return to stock for whatever reason.

[@Tss.999]

Diode Dynamics is one place to go to for lighting man. I got my order within 5 days WTF and today I just ordered their Demon Eye universal and it's already been shipped!!!!!!!!! Plus every time I call them they answered all of my questions. 100% costumer satisfaction.

[@WarrenKD]

Old but worth the comment. I've been waiting since March 9 for my order. Today is May 21.

[@cga1233]

Nice advertising

[@SaharaMustang]

nice video. you should look into making a full led kit (white and RGBW) for the euro-spec mustangs. (we're not getting the gill LED's here. our DRL's are set to the fog lights instead) I'm sure many people would like to modify this to get the great looking gills

[@diodedynamics]

+SaharaMustang, please shoot us an email at [e-mail] and we would be happy to help you out - thanks!

[@He_who_larps]

wouldve been nice on how you guys got the lens off. just bumped into that issue

Hi there! Feel free to give us a call at 314-205-3033 Monday-Friday 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. CST, or shoot us an email at [e-mail] if we can answer any installation questions!

[@ralftech897]

My headlights were sealed with Morimoto Retro and my headlights are now fogging up fully when there’s rain or its a humid day. What should I do? Ideas for the cap? I assume I did it right... i drilled a hole through the back cap and pulled wires through and used high temp silicone to seal the cap hole. By the cap I mean the white cap on the back of headlight that you twist on and off.

[@RobertBambach]

can you upload a video showing how to do the full install for the RGBW led stripes for the 2013 and 2014 mustang?

[@diodedynamics]

+Robert Bambach, we hope to produce a video for the 13-14 Mustang here in the next couple of weeks!

[@jean-lucvandeborne1025]

This looks pretty nice, but how to get the lens off. Is it glued or screwed and snapped on the housing?

[@diodedynamics]

+Jean-Luc Van de Borne To open the headlight, apply heat to break the seal of the adhesive.

[@shanvick1]

Hi guys...it would be much appreciated if you guys could show us how to actually install the boards in the car after modifying the headlights. Thanks

[@diodedynamics]

+shane, thank you for the input. If you are still having trouble installing the boards please send us an email at [e-mail], and we can help you out.

[@shanvick1]

+Diode Dynamics Hi guys I have mailed you already but i havent got any response back from you at all any reply would be nice thanks

[@diodedynamics]

+shane, it will normally take us 1 to 2 days to respond to most emails and sometimes it can take a little longer if we are receiving a lot. Feel free to send us another one just in case it was lost, and you can expect to hear back from us soon.

[@SuperMrgamer100]

where can I find the headlight disassembly video ?

[@adrianustienny2526]

Hey diode dynamics. Got my kit last year and was going to attempt an install over winter. Seems fairly straight forward. My question is, since this are a tight sealed beam from factory, once I open them and seal them I've heard the moisture will always be in there. Know anything about that?

[@diodedynamics]

Hi there! To avoid potential moisture issues, we definitely recommend working with a professional installer whenever possible. Please feel free to give us a call at 314-205-3033 Monday-Friday 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. CST, or shoot us an email at [e-mail], and our service team will be happy to answer any installation questions or recommend an installer near you!

[@jbarrios2373]

Is everything plug and play I don’t want to do no splicing thanks !

[@diodedynamics]

Unfortunately, there will be some splicing involved, however the T-taps that are included in the kit, make splicing a breeze! The only quick splicing required are for the OEM functions like your turn signals and DRL power, everything else is plug-and-play!

[@minshum]

How do we get the DRLs to dim when the headlights come on?

[@diodedynamics]

You can use your app or the controller to dim the white light option!

[@minshum]

@@diodedynamics You want me to use the app every time my headlights automatically come on?

[@diodedynamics]

@@minshum If you would like to dim these DRLs, you will have to use your app.

[@gsxrrider827]

Does the RGBWA include the amber for switchback turn signals (meaning is that their purpose)? And are there any plans to tinker with a dimmable setup (via the remote) for increased intensity for daytime vs nightime driving?

[@diodedynamics]

+gsxrrider827, the amber chip is going to be for the sequential turn signal portion of the replacement boards. There are in fact already options to dim via the wireless remote!

[@gsxrrider827]

They're sequential too????? AWWWWWW!!!!! man, now i have to go grab a second headlight housing and do this!!! Do you have any videos of their operation? And do they work in conjunction with the switchback LED's that i already have?

[@diodedynamics]

+gsxrrider827, check out the Instagram link below to check out video of the sequential going! instagram.com/p/5LpU_SQfDL/?taken-by=jjfordjr

[@mohammedmustafa5934]

I live in kcmo and contacted the dealers on your website they said we don't install it!

[@screameverything]

[@diodedynamics]

+'Cano CM, yep, that is correct. Our RGBW™ LED Boards have full multicolor functionality plus a pure white color. Our RGBWA™ LED Boards have full multicolor functionality plus a sequential amber turn signal. Just let us know if you have any other questions!

+Diode Dynamics Sweet! I'll be using your locator to have them put in. Do i just have them shipped to me then bring the product with me to have them installed? or have them shipped to them and receive a call from the store i chose to have them put in? Additionally, around how long will it take for them to install?

[@screameverything]

+Diode Dynamics One more thing! Is it the store location that will chose a install price?

[@diodedynamics]

+'Cano CM, you can either have them shipped to you and bring them with you to have them installed or purchase them from the dealer directly. Installation time and price will vary from dealer to dealer, so you will have to check with each dealer on that. If you need anything else, just let us know!

[@josemoya3]

What's the difference between the RGBW and the RGBWA

[@meerdeadpool]

+jose moya The RGBWA does Amber as well. This matches the factory side marker lights OR switchback LEDs if you have those installed. I don't see why anyone would want to run amber though when that white is so crisp... ;)

[@nameneko]

It is so helpful if you could upload a video recorded from opening hood. I guess the most confused part is removal headlights and headlight cover.

[@diodedynamics]

+nameneko, the next time we remove the headlights on the Mustang, we will try and shoot some media! Thanks for the suggestion! Until then, give us a call at 314-205-3033, Monday-Friday 9am-5pm CST, and our sales representatives can assist with any installation questions!

[@JaccariJones]

Is it legal to drive with non white color activated while driving

[@diodedynamics]

Hi there! We don't recommend using the multicolor functionality on the road. These LED boards are fully RGBW capable, so you'll have a bright, pure white for street use!

[@MasterCarguy44-pk2dq]

Ive already seen the color change DRL LED such as you have here, and again, they were barely visible in cloudy conditions, which means, not visible in full day light. Showing these in a dark room is not a good test bed.

[@diodedynamics]

Michael Harris these replacements are slightly brighter than the factory lights. Because additional brightness requires significant other considerations for reliability and optics, we will not likely be developing a brighter replacement solution. This video shows how to install the lights- it is not a "test" video of any sort.

[@doldent]

Is it possible to connect the turn on / off of this LED lights right to cars lights or only way to turn it on is the external controller? Iam from EU and i want to use them as daylight since ford has removed the LED stripes from EU distribution, but i dont want to turn it on with some extra controller. Is there way to connect this lights instead of standart ford EU daylights? (and dont worry about local law, just tell me pls if it is possible :) Thanx for answer!

[@diodedynamics]

+doldent Go ahead and shoot us an email at [e-mail], and our sales representatives can help you out!

[@bazooka256]

Do I need to buy 2 of the RGB controllers?

[@diodedynamics]

Only if you would like to control 2 different RGBW products independently from one another!

[@MasterCarguy44-pk2dq]

Hey Paul, the new Toothpick thin DRL LED's are so dim and dull, that they don't even look on in daylight, compared to every other car with LED DRL's. How about adding some life to those LED eyes. They're so dim and bland. Brighten them up first.

[@diodedynamics]

[@diodedynamics]

Hi Alex! These are compatible with EU Mustangs!

[@MasterCarguy44-pk2dq]

I hope you get something out soon. Every time I see a new mustang pull up across an intersection, it looks so lifeless with those dim DRL's. Then any other car with DRL's pulls up next to the mustang, a camaro, Dodge Charger, any imports and it looks like the mustang has a alternator issue with the LED DRL's just disappear next to those new cars. Even the 2013-14 mustangs with their first two parallel LED DRL diodes in each headlight, were very dull. What's worse is, on these new 2015's, the DRLS look great from a 30-50 degree angle to the side of the front bumper, but when viewed head on, they almost disappear and look like 3 thintoothpicks. So, yes, it would be great to stuff some nice BRIGHT LEDs in there like on every other car theses days. Brighter would give the mustang more character and make the car stand out. People lol at my 14' mustang, ask me what's up with the fake LED DRL's. I ask them why? They say they're obviously fake because they are so dim. Ricer-ish, as some have put it. Everyone else has the brightness figured out, why not Ford?..... My buddy swapped out the boards as you have done in these 2015's, with brighter strips as a custom project and it's a huge improvement over stock. Look at a new charger, 2015 challenger, camaros bright parenthesis LEDs around the outer sides of the headlights, or even a cheap little Chevy Cruze has bright LEDs in the traditional fog light section. Oh, how about LED round fog lights, like in the Porsche Vayman/Boxster, those would help too.
