Re: The NEW retrofit thread
There are some pictures of them side on and from the top which look to make the a tad bulky (?) to me. Are they now led?

Any reason they won't fit the tailgate models?

Re: The NEW retrofit thread
Surly there must be some changes to pin/plug or what ever the lamps are in different positions?

Re: The NEW retrofit thread
I checked what the lad said on fb
"Plug and play but you must change connectors' places in original wire"
Also checked etka and there are 2 versions, 1 each for tailgate or barn doors (although there are also listed for those with or without rear window wipers on the barn door versions but no one knows what the actual difference is and we think they both fit). There are also 'tinted' versions of each.
Tinted
Untinted
Coming up at about £80 each. I've had my parts guys looking into getting some and they're still on backorder with no delivery dates and don't even think they can order them yet. Should be soon though.
Looking at those photos, the tailgate ones won't fit the previous gen Caddys so its possible the barn door versions might be needed. Anyone confirm if the barn door and tailgate ones are interchangeable on the current Caddys?
