LED fog light conversion
I did a conversion mod on an 07 S550 fog/driving light area. Ownder wanted to keep the oem look, did not want to put an led bulb into a halogen reflector housing as the led housing projected better PLUS had the nice halo which is activated upon starting the vehicle to be used as a daytime running light. Other than the pits on the factory glass it is a nice clean factory look having the DRL. I had to remove the factory reflector and reuse the gasket to seal the aftermarket driving lamp. Came out superb!

When I did LED's on my e class I changed the light housing. New lens etc...The LED's I used had a projector built in them that could be used with the stock housing. They were the best lights ever. Pure whiteness. They were brighter than my 6000k HID's.
