Talking LEDs/DRL

Sorry I was in a hurry didn't take photos through out the process. but it's pretty straight forward,
DIY: Front Bumper Removal
DIY: Headlight Removal
How to hook up with parking light DIY: Headlight LED's and blackout





The DRL wires and through the side of the car and hooked up with the connection for my radar detector.
Im sure there's a easier way but that's the only way i could think of.



the LED strips are pretty thin so they hide really well between the bumper and the headlights, and the hood and the headlights.
All LEDs are secured with 3M double sided tapes.









The horizontal strips and the bottom 2 leds are DRL, the vertical strips are hooked up to the parking lights.
the DRL on the fang line up perfectly with the vertical strips.
horizontal DRL are all over the streets i wanted to try something different so i came up with this idea.

Are the ones on the fang true DRL? As in, you can see them clearly like the audi during the daytime. They look alot brighter than the headlight ones. I really like the fang ones if they are true DRL.
