Angel eyes do actually work as DRL, i.e. in fully bright mode, but don't work as parking/side lights or when the headlights are on (when they should be dim, but on). That means it's not the LEDs at fault, and I don't think it's the FEM but that could be wishful thinking.
Automodz say £186 for a module with a lead time of 2-3 days, so I'll probably go with that unless one of the other people come back to me soon with a better price.
Images of my modules attached.

I would have thought an electrical engineer could replace the faulty component on the circuit board for far less than that.
Great news spare parts are available though, i'm very surprised!
