Question Has ne1 successfully switched round fog/drl for LED's?

Im sure I'm missing a post/thread on this but I've searched the forum and also googled and came up with Nill...that said (as the title says) I'm curious if anyone has made this change and if yes what was involved.

Thanks in advance

i've asked awhile back and kind of remember someone did it but no further details. in fact, you can ask your dealer for both parts and labors then shop around w/other body shops.

They are not quad drls. Two of the lights are DRL, and the other two lights are proper fog lights.

Someone claimed to successfully put LED bulbs in the two DRL round lights but several others attempted after and did not have any success. The OP that claimed to be successful never responded to their questions.
