Led daytime driving lights

The more I look at them, the more I think they look like buck teeth. Maybe we could mount them lower somehow?

I think the trick would be if they could be mounted behind the front fascia with drilled holes and some thin covers for the front (too hard to try to drill five perfect holes on each side).

I had wondered what these would look like when I saw them in the parts catalog. Much better than I'd anticipated.

Thank you, I really will try to get better pictures of them , because I didnt like them when I first saw them in the catalog, but Im very happy with the results. Much better in person and on. Seen a Porche the other day (not sure what Model) but they had something very similar and looked great. Almost wrecked try to see them. ha

Wiring was a piece of cake. Just uninstall a couple of harnesses and connect the ones that come with the lights and reconnect the old ones into the new. The bumper part was just a little time pressing

Now that you have DRL's! Contact your insurance company, and see if they will knock off a few bucks on your premium.

Hey! That looks like an EX35 parked next to you. That's a nice little machine! I have a question because I've been thinking of having these mounted for months.... Why do they look a little yellow in the pics? Are they actually bright white like the Germans'? They look really neat, but the installation scares me. Like someone else said, that looks quite "involved." Congrats, and I like them... If they look like the Germans. (Bright white.)

Not sure why they turned out yellow in the picture, because they are NOT yellow at all. They all brighter and more white then any light on a vehicle I have even seen. Trust me I have said it over and over again. ITS WELL WORTH THE MONEY!! IMO

Looks white to me! Maybe those that are seeing yellow are suffering from jondus!
