Default Review: Putco DRL for a 2015 Ford G3 Dayliners

Installed these around Christmas time, and I have already had one go out. These are the Switchback LEDS.

Worked well up until now, install was a bit of a hassle, as you need to remove the headlight assemblies completely. Kit did come with everything needed to install.
Did not use the clip on wire connectors, soldered all of my connections in hopes to eliminate any problems down the road.
Anyway I am working with the vendor I bought them through to get a replacement.
If these go out again I will remove them all together.

Do you have any pictures of them operational in daylight?

I called them today and the person I talked to had such a disconnect with their product. She said they take pictures in in darker conditions so they demonstrate how bright they are. Wow she really said that.

They are too expensive for a stick on solution if they can't be seen in full sun.
