    Lights from a DS3 in Poland would work in the uk right? Also is there any quick guide laying around on how to replace these?

      They should, just remember that the left ones will be on the right and vice-versa

      Replacement is easy:

      - Remove the panels from inside the boot
      - Reach through to the rear lamp and unscrew the big plastic bolt you can feel
      - With your other hand, hold the lamp cluster to prevent this from falling out as the bolt head is removed
      - Disconnect wiring harness from the lamp cluster
      - With the bolt head removed, lift the old lamp cluster out of it's housing
      - Replace with new light
      - Screw bolt head back on to new lights and reconnect wiring harness.
      - Test everything still works.

        Hi I don't think that kind of modification will impact your insurance. The 3d rear lights are amazing, so many cars will follow.regards Greg.

          They will fit but as Poland drive on the other side of the road, the lights may not match UK spec.

            Okay so I will have to put the left on the right and right on the left. Once these have been fitted when I click the
            Left indicator it's not going to indicate on the right side?

            I was getting a pair forc £220 delivered and they look in good condition too.

                  You do realise that these will have the fog and reverse lights the wrong way around and it's not as simple as changing the bulb.

                    You beat me to it. I wad just about to post that. Looks like this ain't as simple as first thought. Too much hassle and messing
                    About. Plus it's from Poland and sending it back would be a ball ache. I will just have to keep searching. Europarts are doing
                    Up to 67percent off everything but for one led brake light it's like £330! Lol

                        Most scrappys or breakers down these areas have either sold them, don't have any ds3's in or charge over the odds.

                              Okay I am finding a lot of 3d Lights for sale that's right hand drive. I message th3 seller and he said
                              The reverse lights are on the ns cluster. So that would be a straight swap right?

                                I have my 3d Lights coming tomorrow. Got a brand new pair for £30 quid! I've had a look at the wires and
                                I can't seem to shift the harness connected to the light. It's usually a push down and pull but it won't shift.
