We support April Dream, an initiative to make April 1st a day for sharing dreams. This press release is the dream of the fcl. brand from WiNEEDS HOLDINGS Inc.
WiNEEDS HOLDINGS Inc. (Location: Minami-ku, Hiroshima; President & CEO: Masashi Oda), which operates the car and motorcycle custom parts specialty store fcl., is launching the "Reliable Light" dissemination project to protect the safety of drivers and pedestrians, aiming to create a car society where everyone can be comfortable.

Is that LED really "bright"?

When choosing lights, have you ever experienced things like, "I trusted the catalog, but it was dim," "It's bright, but somehow hard to see," or "It was cheap, but it broke right away"? If you've ever felt that way, it might be due to the "number tricks" rampant in the market.
Currently, the automotive light market is flooded with flashy numbers that are far from reality and misleading unit displays that can easily fluctuate depending on the measurement environment. Products that ignore light distribution design in pursuit of only excessive brightness, like so-called "explosive light," not only fail to deliver light where it's needed, worsening visibility, but the needlessly scattered, intense light can also blind oncoming drivers, even posing a risk of serious accidents.
fcl. declares a departure from the spec competition of "as long as it's bright, it's good."

Our conscience lies in our commitment to "actual measured values after 5 minutes of being on" and "light distribution."
What we pursue is a single value, born from the real car life in Hiroshima and polished by over 50,000 customer voices. That is "Reliable Light," which achieves "honest brightness, precise illumination distribution, and long-term peace of mind."
At fcl., we don't publish the maximum values immediately after lighting up just to decorate our catalogs, but only the stable, actual measured values "after 5 minutes of being on." We believe this is an honest proof that the performance can be demonstrated under actual driving conditions.
Furthermore, we believe that a design that balances both "brightness" and "light distribution" and does not interfere with the safety of the surroundings is what makes a truly reliable light. The well-thought-out, beautiful cut-off line not only secures the driver's field of vision but is also a kindness and conscience of fcl., wishing for the safety of society as a whole.


*For parts that are not lit for a long time, such as backup lamps, the measurement is taken after 1 minute. Noted on each product page.
It's not "sell it and forget it." To stay connected.

Lights are not just parts; they are an important element that colors everyone's car life. fcl. aims to be an empathy-driven brand that stands by your car life and values connections, not just a product manufacturer.

Since car lights are precision instruments, no matter how thoroughly quality control is implemented, the possibility of defects cannot be reduced to zero. That's why we focus on customer support. We don't just end with "it broke, so replace it." We carefully listen to the usage situation, identify the cause, and think about preventing recurrence. This attitude from our veteran staff is the proof of our reliability.
Also, the more than 50,000 customer reviews are our valuable asset. Frank opinions like "this part was so-so" are immediately shared with the development team to lead to the next improvement. fcl.'s products always grow with our customers and continue to update their reliability.

Furthermore, we value a development style where we work together with our users, holding monthly photo contests for purchasers and receiving their cooperation in test-fitting products. fcl.'s products always grow with our customers and continue to update their reliability.
