Anyway to turn OFF LED lights in headlight?

[klee168168]

The LED lights in the headlight in a MY13 v8v is always on when the headlight is on. Is there a way to turn them off?

Why? Aren't they sidelights?
I actually fitted a kit that leaves the LEDs on with ignition (headlights off) which can be tuned off via a remote, might be a thought.

I’m just curious if they can be turned off. I would personally leave them on. Just curious.

So what kit is that ? do you have a link? is it a DIY fit ?

In the event of rain and temperature drops, humidity condenses on the inside of the headlamps, they start to run. There have been many many attempts at solving this problem, but none has come to a satisfactory conclusion; There were always disadvantages to be accepted. I refreshed my physics knowledge in thermodynamics, made some prototypes, tested them until I had created the perfect remedy for myself and you.

Your website looks excellent Phil, but I was disappointed at not being able to read about your thermodynamic experiments.
Unfortunately, there is a tendency for many British people, to be a little hesitant in the multi linguistic department.

I am sure many here would be very interested to know about your work, in finding a solution to the AM headlight misting problem.

Bugger, I have every single receipt for the car except that one Anyway, it was about £65 and I 'googled' it.
