Someone ought to ask Fishcakes for an explanation why the differences??

Just swapped lights - turned out great...OEM like fit/finish! Light error came on for a second then went away - and hopefully stays away!

Hi jhbrennan,

You're right, not CEL, but a warning light. I checked the lights and it seems that one of the connectors was loose. Hopefully I won't have to troubleshoot any further.

Best,

Yeah your good bud.


Sorry I didn't PM everybody since I figured we were all subscribed to the thread. Plus I think we exceeded the 10 people. Like jhbrennan said in post #85 there is a code to enter upon checkout.

Per Fishcake: "All the lights have one set of FIXED resistors that are mounted on the light, and one set in the box that plug into the light harness. All the lights are EXACTLY the same, if you do not plug in the second of resistors on the light harness you will get a check left/right signal/brake light warning."

I know this is true because I text him *****in about everybody having different lights and my set giving me warning lights. After he responded to me, I looked in the box they came in and found the second set of resistors that I did not install... I felt like an ****!

Thumbs up
Ok, well if anybody wants to join me in purchasing some DRL lights. I am going to purchase some from fishcake.


This is NOT a group buy, just some of the fellow members going into a store together to buy some stuff.

I just ordered the front bumper lights (drl) from the awesome Fishcake. I couldn't wait and the retail cost was reasonable. Unique Style Racings is a class act business!
