Has anyone done this yet? Debating.

I don't think French Spec has been a thing for nearly two decades but it may look good on the right colorway. I was a huge fan of it back in the day with the BMW ellipsoid headlights.

RGsport apparently has the RGB Version. I'm going to bite since it will give flexibility to color ways. I can always default to the stock look.

Post photos when you're done. I am very curious. Always loved how it looked back in the day and would love to see how it looks now on modern vehicles.

Something like this although I don't like it with the chrome grille.

I'd be careful. Nothing worse than modding for the sake of modding. If they came yellow from the factory, there would be ten threads discussing how to turn them white.

there are no other physical changes required? what about coding, does it needed? also if you don't mind can you provide a link to the modules? Thank you

Looks amazing mura666
I wonder how the RGB version would work and if it is just as "simple" as the yellow one. Would be nice to have all the colors at your disposal, including that awesome looking yellow!!! How hard was it to install? Did you need to pull the bumper? or how did you access the modules on the headlights? |

As far as changing modules you will definitely need to remove front bumper and headlights in order to access the modules. I swapped my OEM Laser headlights with shadow line Laser headlights couple of months ago so I went through this once before

maybe change color by bluetooth You probably have a lot of wires to organize It is possible to work after removing the front wheel house (the bumper does not need to be removed) Better if your fingers are thin and long (better if you can use a lift) space is small After removing the oem module, attach the purchased module with thermal glue and reinsert it |

I was replacing the headlights so in my case it was necessary to remove bumper as well, maybe its not needed for replacing modules but I recall everything is very tight even with headlight in your hand so its gotta be tricky and might be easer to remove the bumper which isn't super hard
