Pretty nice. I like that they are much more subtle than others I've seen.
|
The pics below. You can see a night version and see them in the day. Not very noticeable for an inexpensive kit. I wasted about 12". Dang!!!!!

Nice...What kit did you buy?
|
Yeah, I asked the same thing. What kit did you buy?
|
Very cool man, but I think a better description for the thread would have been LED's next to the fog lights!
|
started: LED's next to the fog light.;)
|
$16 kit from Autoparts.

LEDs
can you post how the install was performed?
|
sorry Erock. I did not take pics, but It was VERY easy. You do have to take out the panel just in front of the tire to complete. The rest is a breeze. To all the HOT WIRE to the fogs is the BLACK not the white with the red stripe. Nissan dealers are stupid at least the one I called. "sir which it the HOT on the 09 Maxima fog lamp??? The white with the red dude. ARE YOU SURE. Yes sir positive" Freaking wrong. I had a tester, but for some reason could not find a good ground. They work perfect and have been through a rain and two car washes so hopefully the will hold up. Hit me for any more install questions.

The kit looked like this except it said WHITE for the color. There were two strips of tape LED that were about 12" long ea. They had two lead wires, but I don't think that's the exact one. Mine were straight in the packaging. **NOTE*** had a test button to try them out!! The 3M tape holds GREAT. I was a little skeptical, but it does hold!!!

Ok so I just wanted to make sure that I got you correctly, lol. The HOT wire is actually the black wire and the ground is the WHITE or did you ground it to a screw on the chassis somewhere? What did you use to connect the wires?
you can also cut and wire nut, just be sure to tape them good. Also before you stick the LED put a small amount of black or clear silicone over the end that you cut to seal it. good to go. |

Spliced them straight to the fog wires. Yes the fog black wire is hot and the fog white wire with red markings is ground. I used "easy splice" so there were no cutting of the OEM wires. Make sure the gauge of the splicing connector is small enough for the LED leads. Those are VERY small gauge.

this should become a sticky.....JK Jundi's spoiler install was made a sticky with less info than I just gave:))

Has anyone thought about wiring up LEDs as DRLs? Also has anyone tried to put LEDs directly beneath the headlight?
I'm currently 3,000 miles away from my car:( so I can't check myself but I can start looking up stuff to buy if there is enough space. There are flat LEDs that could probably fit into a tight space even it if required custom making the strips I think it would be worth it. http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/s...pod/th_led.png http://www.avagotech.com/pages/en/le...ngular_series/ |
