Installed LED driving lights in my Z06/GS Front splitter vents.
Throught this would look cool, maybe a little bit of a polarizing mod but I like it. havent really seen this one done before. Bought some LED driving lights off the 'bay. installed them the other day and hooked them up to one of the fuses in the fuse box that is turned on when the key is switched on.
the lights came a blaring clear white lens so i masked off the round bulb areas and used tail light tint to darken the area around it, Turned out pretty well i think, Gives it a factory look, and looks great when in front of the car.

I did the exact same thing you did a few months ago. I used some cheap LED lights I found on eBay. They're not as bright as the factory installed LEDs on the German cars but it's more for looks than anything. I'm also playing with the idea of installing a set of bright LEDs inside of a factory fog lamp housing. Gotta figure out how to remove the lens and mount the LEDs first.

I think those look really good where you installed them.

Nice job, I like the look.

Yes-the lights are mounted too low to do any good but it's taking advantage of a space that is already there and is wasted space anyway. As for the LED lights, just go to eBay and type in LED fog lamps in the search box. You'll see lots of venders offering all types and styles of lights you can adapt for that location.

A tasteful mod, IMHO. And if you tire of them, it looks like they'll be easy to remove. Have fun!

Working in the Bronx and Manhattan I see all kinds of LED installs that would make your head spin but I like them when they are tastefully done, and those are tastefully done.
