even that example looks odd...I would have gone underneath the headlight assembly if anything. Not on top of it.

I say take it off and try again or leave it off altogether. Right now it's as if random glowing objects flew up off the street and smashed into the mesh on the AMG fascia. It doesn't look good.. at all.

error codes with this mod.[/QUOTE]

what does it says on ur cluster ?

looks better this way (Klinh's ride),



Andy
i got no error codes on the cluster. basically i tried finding a source of power which was the headlight/ballast and wired the positive and negative wires and extended it and i also added a switch so that i can turn it on or off anytime i want. plus it doesn't consume too much power.

I wired these Direct to the fuse box. Found one with switch on power which eliminates the need for a separate switch or splicing wires.
