LED Daylight running INSTALLED !!!

I finally have times today and decided to installed my LED daylight running. I personally like it because it look different. I got the idea after I saw the new Clk (E-Coupe) in my rear mirror a couple months back. I know it not everyone cup of tea but it mine CUP of TEA !!!

I think it looks awesome when it's just the led's and the city lights. In the pic where all the lights are on it looks like too much.

Details Please!

I like it, but I agree with dynomite05. Why not tap into the city lights? That way they turn off when the headlights are on.

Regardless, can we get more details on the install please?

Yea that's why I would roll with the fogs off. It looks much better.

Yes, it not bad but I agreed too much light. I can easily put a switch in there to turn it on/off when ever the foglight is on. It look really nice too when the foglights is off and all the lights is on. I forgot to take a pic of it.

I did (3th post pic) but we (US) don't have the Canada/European city light like feature. The new E-coupe does came with the city light and it does not turn off automatic either when the headlight turn on but it will dim the the city light to 30% less bright when the healight turn on. Btw, these mods only cost me $15 (not a mis-typed) in parts.

Looks GREAT! Where did you get your DRL's? And what temp is our FOG's? 6000k?

Also, how do you power the LED light? If i read your post correctly you powerd it into your side blinkers?

The DRL I got is from Ebay. The FOG's temp is 6000k from HIDextra.com. Yes, I tapped the side blinkers for power. I didn't have to cut the side blinker wires at all.

3 people e-mailed me for the seller but I couldn't find it on Ebay anymore. Btw, some people though it the stripe type LED, it not the stripe LED. My headlight HID is not OEM. I just installed the 6000k D1S HID bulbs on mine. My DRL and city light are "zexon white".
