Default S6 LED foglights, finally UPDATED WITH DIY PICTURE

Ok so some of you might remember I was talking about this like six months ago. I had originally rigged this up with a couple pairs of LED foglights I got on ebay. They werent too bright, and the housings just didnt look right. A week ago my girlfriend bought some LED accent lights for her house and they turned out to be perfect. $40 and these things really turn heads. Sorry about the cell phone pics dropped my digital camera a while ago and still havent had time to get it fixed, let me know what you think...

Ok so I have received a few questions on how to do this, if you purchase the kit from IKEA its pretty simple, I basically glued to of the "light sticks" together, one on top of the other and then attached 2 metal brackets to the back for mounting purposes. I drew up a simple picture of what they will look like just before installation. If you are putting them on a stock B5 bumper you will need to cut out two of the plastic supports on the bottom section in order to fit the new lights. They coem ready for 12volt installation with a power and ground wire, so thats not an issue....




Oh and one of my car since putting the H&R sports on, since I havent put one of those up yet

Nive to see it worked out. (sort of) I almost bought the lights you linked but wanted to see how they turned out first. Where were those lights at? And do you have a brand or any product info?

Pretty cool man. What about the stock fog lights though? Do those work?

let me see if I can find the box, they are actually made to plug into the wall in your home. Got them at IKEA, basically the set comes with four 10" strips, I put two on top of each other and wired them up. Ill let you know if I can find the box.
