Tesla's new projection lights for Model Y. Are they worth buying?

Tesla has just released a new accessory for the Model Y – projection lights. These replace the existing puddle lights in the bottom of the doors to project the word "TESLA" onto the ground. But at £60 in the UK ($65 in the US), are these worth it?
In this video I install the lights in the front doors of my Tesla Model Y, compare them to the existing puddle lights and decide if they’re worth the money.
You can buy cheap aftermarket puddle lights but some people have experienced problems with these as they can upset the door control module can result in the glass not dropping when you open or close the door. This can cause the glass to break. These new Tesla projection lights should not interfere with the car and will be warrantied. So if you want to upgrade your door lights, you just have to decide if it’s worth paying 3 times more for the Tesla version.
