Review on ๐Ÿš˜ [Ultima] LED Smoked Dynamic Sequential Turn Signal Mirror - BMW 1/2/3/4 Series F20 F33 F30 F32 X1 i3 Compatible by David Stover

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Same cheap quality as signals at half the price

I made these at the same time as the M3 style mirror caps. The facility is not for the faint of heart. If you break that mirror glass (and there's a good chance you will), it'll cost you over $350 if your mirrors are heated and auto-dimmed. Make sure the ambient temperature is high enough. I recommend doing this in the sun after the car has been stationary to allow the glass and plastic to warm up. Construction. For the price, I was expecting a definite improvement in quality compared to eBay or other Revain sellers who offer them at half price ($30-$50). This is not what I received. This is a much cheaper plastic construction compared to OEM so I doubt they will hold up well to road hazards like rocks and salt. functionality. Sequential lights work as expected. NEARLY. That is my real quality standard. As you will see in my video, the LED gets narrower as it gets closer to the edge. What I mean is that the light doesn't fill the entire lens as it travels to the end of the mirror cap. It's worse on the driver's side, barely noticeable on the passenger's side. Unfortunately, they only allow one video per review. It might seem like a small thing, but it's annoying when you're spending premium dollars on something and getting the same quality as something that's half the price.

Pros
