5 bucks is a great price. I just wish they were plain without the pointer or grooves. There's enough going on on my center stack as it is.

I'll update this once the seller confirms if they have ***** without the pointer and/or grooves. they are cheap enough for me to repurchase more if I have to

What do you suggest i pick up to reglue the core? Just put a dab in there and apply them?

after reading thru the original post from the M forum, the guy added paper to the inside core of the **** to make a snug fit....maybe go that route or try wrapping a small piece of foil around the small radio handle prior to slipping over the actual ****.

Definitely interested in these *****, I'd like metal ones but don't want to spend $95CAD to get them, under $10 though would be quite intriguing.

Ordered the *****, can't pass up on $5.



I got my VLED V3's in today. Muuuuuuch better.Sedan Chat Thread-yh7qieg.jpg


I also replaced my reverse LED so I could actually see things at night with the camera. The right is a 1.5 year old VLED that I had used for a license plate light on my old accord. The left is a new Samsung LED.

Did you order the ones in the first post of the M thread? It looks like those are only a pack of 3?

Fantastic! Yours is 6 years newer, but I now know my dash will look better than yours.

I got mine for $60 shipped when they first came out, which was his promotional price. Still kind of pricey for what they are, but much more appropriately priced than what he's currently asking. IMO. Not that it matters... if he sets a price with a high PM, and people pay it, then more power to him.

For comparison, the Carsmo SS *****...

Even at $60 I'd consider them, but shipping to Canada and the current exchange rate brings it to almost $100 for me, no way any ***** would be worth that cost, no matter how nice they are.

Has something changed? I purchased my set two weeks ago for $60 shipped. They are a great touch. (Pun intentional.) They are perfect for that dash. Elegant and understated. None of that ribbed-for-no-pleasure BS. Of course, "my car, my taste" applies for everyone.
