Jeph Swift 3 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 On a whim the other day, while I was in Advance, I picked up a pair of those LED light strips. I thought it would be easy. Well, where I want them to go, not so easy. I have a 1LT and want them to be on the outside edge of the foglight area in the shape of an L on the right side, inverted L on the left side.. Does anywhere know where I could find instructions specifically for the spark? I figured I'd ask here first before I pay someone to do it... Link to post Share on other sites
bluer101 241 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Return the ones at Advanced and get these, it will be easier. http://www.ebay.com/itm/LED-Super-White-Car-Driving-Lamp-Fog-12v-Universal-2X-Drl-Daytime-Running-Light-/281071540702?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item41712b59de&vxp=mtr Link to post Share on other sites

Jeph Swift 3 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) I got my lights installed. However not until after I put them on, we realized that the lights are inverted. The passanger side faces down while the driver side faces in. This seem to be a common problem because of the way it's packaged. So I have to get extra wire to extend the connection to change the passenger side direction. I think it looks a lot more cool facing inside. I am also doing the same thing to my turn signals.

Jeph Swift 3 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 Here are the photos I've taken at this moment. In the darkest one, you can see where the lights sort of inverted. Link to post Share on other sites

Jeph Swift 3 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 That's true! I would also need to allocate a power source, and that's not my expertise lol Link to post Share on other sites
silverstud@webmail.co.za 0 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 (edited) I have installed these, they work well and double as a turn signal (the LED blinks orange). Also added the Audi Style light highlight to the top seem of the standard lights. Will post a pic soon. Edited November 6, 2013 by Sudeshen 'Sudoz' Pillay Link to post Share on other sites
