Anyone install yet with any success? My harness may be faulty and getting a new one from MESO. My switch would work fine on "auto" and the middle setting which would be off "off" but the puddles wouldn't work on the "on" setting. Hope to have better luck with the new kit.

Not the door panels but the trim and kick panels for better access to the wiring around the fuse box as well as the passenger side. All in all not too bad.

Anyone seen a comparison between the meso pods vs a Lasfit LED or a Diode Dynamic high power LED?

The MESO pods use the VLED puddle pods which he mounts in a custom plastic housing. VLED claims they are 400 lumens, you could use that as a rough comparison number for pure output. But the pods are arranged in a circular array so they probably distribute the light better than a single bulb.

I put in a set of VLED bulbs for the puddle light and they are plenty bright for me/fade. Think they were even only the 70L ones if that helps

Any luck on the switch; did you get it resolved? Also, does the switch require taking the light apart? They're not in stock right now so I'm wondering if I should to do it all at one time.

No worries, here's a few pics. The Lasfit are on the left, the VLED's from Meso are on the right

Installed the meso switch yesterday. No need to open the mirror. There's a tube you vid about it and the install PDF can be found on the meso page.

Can you post updates after you tested them?

I think if you took the head off this and mounted to your side mirrors, it would look sweet.
Then you can really screw up your night vision, trip over something and laugh.

No issues with tripping over anything when they go out?
Like say your eyes became adjusted to them in a dark area while you were digging out some stuff, you finish up and walk to your house somewhat blinded...

Or with the meso switch you turn them off, but add LED's and you get enough light to change a tire at night if needed.
