ya that looks sick...

how/where did u get those?

ajclarke88 · « **Reply #5 on:** July 12, 2009, 04:39:45 PM »

www.oznium.com they are 19 inch flexible led strips, cost about 45 bucks but way worth it compared to spendin the 300 on the ebay aftermarket lights.... basically take the headlight apart like the joey mod, mark out where you want the leds to sit cut it out with your trusty dremel and hot glue it in place. i then applied another coat of paint covering the led strip aswell so that it didnt stand out so much then took a paint thinner and wiped the part of the strip where the leds glow so that the paint wasnt covering that then put it all back together, im not 100% happy with the corners of mine yet by the parking light id like to get a smoother finish there so the led strip looks more factory but i gotta get ahold of some plastic repair stuff, i think it will finish better and smoother than bondo. Its also good to have some incase you slip withthe dremel and have to fix a nick or something. Anyway need any advice or pointers im here to help. Im very pleased with the way that it came out and my girlfriend said its pretty visible during the day aswell but i havent let anyone take my car down the road to see for myself.

heres the exact link. like i said i used the 19 inch ones and you can tell in the pictures i cheated it over an inch or so on the left side of the headlight so that it would go higher up on the right corner.

i chose white although in the pics it kinda looks blue, but its def white lol

good job man... I have seen somewhere on the web while searching for LED's.. guy used the same 1's as yours .. the only thing he did different .. he painted black every other bulb so they don't produce light and it looked great

Hey, they look awesome and as you said, you didn't spend so much money. I want to try them on my A4. I already know where you bought them, but can you please let me know how do you connect them, to the battery? Are the leds inside or outside the headlight? thanks.

ajclarke88 · « **Reply #15 on:** August 05, 2009, 03:54:38 PM »

i wired the right up to the amber bulbs you got 3 wires running to that bulb i assume ones a ground ones power for ur first click of ur lights and the other is power for them to blink. thats the way i wired em anyway and they came out perfect no light on the dash or nothing. I opened the headlight and put them on the inside of it.

led on a b6

ajclarke88 · « **Reply #18 on:** November 24, 2009, 03:45:24 PM »

those are the ones you can purchase off of ebay right? hows fitment and wiring pretty easy? and when you hit your blinker do the leds go out like the new model audis?

installation wasnt to tricky, just make sure u have a magnet to catch the screws. and no everything appears to be working fine,

All 3 modes work as well,
