What did you use for the strip on the black covers to the sides of the fog lights? I have been planning on doing that for a while now just couldn't figure out what I had to use and how. I would appreciate the feed back very much... Thank you.

Ill Talk to my installer see exactly what he did, but the units are so light no drilling was involved, and the pics don't do them justice, just like the audi LED color is what they look like. Not yellow, but white like the HIDs. I am having a problem with one of them the color is a bit off, but i contacted the seller and their getting me a new kit and returning this one as defective or something. But they look insane, like they were suppose to come like that with the car. I like mods that look original as possible. I also changed the fog likes from white to yellow and it looks better, i think.

Well autozone doesn't offer much where I am so I am sure that it will narrow it down thanx....

Another ? though. How did you go about wiring them and did you drill a hole into the plastic for the wires or did you hide them a different way?

well in terms of the wires being messy, for the led strip on the corners, i drill a hole and pass it through there and use zip tie to attach the wires to my headlight wires to look OEM. for the center led strip, i just pass the wires around the plastic and hide it there and you cant see them either. professionally done..

Just out of curiosity, why did you go with two different colors for the LED strips? I like the look regardless. Looks sharp.

i went with a different color LED for the center because i wanted to add a color to the car and not just make everything white so i went with xenon LED blue and it make the car look sharp at night as you can see in the pic

Thanks. I was interested in cracking mine open and painting the outsides black like they did, but i don't trust anyone in Memphis to reseal them correctly to prevent fogging
