BavGruppe defect?
A local SoCal installer installed these about 2 years ago (15K miles). Anyone else experience this fading/yellowing with BavGruppe?

Unfortunately the led strips look like they have burnt out.
The problem with most of the aftermarket hardware is they use chips that don't handle heat well. They don't have any access to distribute heat away using something like a heatsink. You'd be surprised how hot it gets inside the actual housing from both the bulb and engine heat. The good thing is a lot of those parts are now available to buy such as the rings.

Superior German lighting technology swapped for cheap Chinese replacements. The results are pretty cut and dry...
