   Great Product for Some Added Style., March 15, 2016

   This review is from: Soondar® LEXUS No Drill Type Wirelss Car Door Logo Badge Welcome Lights Cree Led Laser Ghost Shadow Projector Lamps Dedicated Design 2pcs – No Drilling Required

   First of all, I just want to point out that it is stupid for some of the other reviewers to blame the product for not sticking because they didn’t know how to properly prepare the surfaces for optimal adhesion. Or to blame the magnets because they didn’t know how to measure for proper alignment. This product is sound in both concept and execution. Those other reviewers who claimed to have had installation issues are for lack of a better word, stupid. It’s not the product’s or the designer’s fault that they lack common sense.

   I bought these because they don’t actually make the type of clear cover for my Lexus where I can just replace the red cover for the front door courtesy lights. Having these at the stock location would be ideal, but these are great alternative. BTW, I found other listings on Amazon for brown, tan, and beige color units to match the color of your interior. So black is not the only choice.

   I had the location on my Lexus’ door already picked out and made sure I had clearance between the door and seats before I even placed the order for these. And when I received my units, I tested them for proper functionality and to test the limits of the magnets’ range. I found that I can turn the units on and off with the magnets as far away as an inch. Also for best results, it is better to align the magnets not under the spot where it shows «Sensor», but at the far edge of the unit (opposite side of the lens).

   Preparation of the surfaces is very important. If you had ever detailed your car in the past with Armor-All type products, I can pretty much guarantee that there is no double-sided tape on earth that will stick well to it. So I cleaned my door panels with Windex first followed by rubbing alcohol. Same thing for the door sill as well. That striped off all the Armor-All. Both my lights and magnets now have death-grip like adhesion to their respective surfaces. I though to myself I may regret this if I ever want to remove these in the future for any reason. But for the time being, they look pimp as hell. Best thing of all, both of my units function beautifully on the first try.

   These are great products. I’ve gotten many compliments for these. Don’t be like the other idiots. Do your homework. Measure, clean, and mock up before you stick. Then you won’t have any problems.

   Update 09/03/2016:
   The Lexus logo is still shining bright and the adhesive is still holding strong. There is not any bit of wiggle at all, not even while I was trying to pry open the battery door. I did have to replace the batteries twice already during the past 6 months. Each set of fresh AAAs seem to last about 3 months. Of course less if you open your doors a lot. Anyway, the take away from this, the LEDs still work although consume batteries rather quickly. And that the supplied 3M tape withstood the test of time and the heat from SoCal summer. Still 5 stars!

   Easy install and looks great/ installation tip, December 30, 2016

   These are really neat. Easy installation. And I get a lot of compliments on them. One thing that I see a lot of complaints about from people who purchase them is that the magnet isn’t strong enough. I’m one of those guys that likes to have everything really secure so what I did was I went to Ace Hardware and I purchased a small pack of high-powered magnets for around 3 bucks. And I used them instead of the magnet that comes with the kit. The magnets that you get at Ace Hardware will allow you to keep the main unit close to 2 inches or more away from the magnet and the light still goes off so for people who have trucks especially or just large gaps between their dorsal and the bottom of their door where the main unit mounts the higher powered magnets work great. I also opted to use gorilla double stick tape and let me tell you these things aren’t going anywhere. Just figured I would help anybody out who may purchase them. You’ll see a lot of negative reviews about them and the only reason being is because they were installed incorrect. In addition what I did was I used to magnets on my door sill one on the top and one underneath the rubber molding this makes it very easy to move them around and get them placed properly. I used that instead of double-sided tape. I hope this little installation tip helps everyone. We all want our cars looking great. Don’t mind my messy car I’ve been working on it all week.
