Apparently, the Mycarr brand is the company that supplies the Predator Ice....

Just looked at the link. P. Ice comes with a long wire + resistors. The ones in the link, have no resistor or wires, it can be plugged in directly? Thats better than P.Ice.

This is what I received.

My point to the post was to show the origins of the Predator product as it relates to the Mycarr product. The way I read it, and the way I'm told, is that Mycarr is the parent company for the Predator Ice.

Yup- as Nick has mentioned, they are produced in the same plant thus both are very similar.

If thats the case, they should have the same brightness, correct? If thats so, then I'm not satisfied at all, the P. Ice V2 is not bright at all. Same as OEM but white.

I'll say the install was challenging. Here are some crappy pics...

Half completed...


Completed...


License plate
what kind of led lights did you use for the license plate? Did you have to do any modifications to the led lights such as adding resistors to make them work without getting the faulty code in idrive? I bought some led's off ebay, they work but I get the faulty code in idrive. Thanks
