I was wondering if anyone has put the LED strips inside the actual headlight and, if so, how to do it/how does it look? thanks in advance

also, do you need to get the voltage reduce to drop it down to 12V or can you simply splice into the parking lights?

how did closing up your lights go? have you seen any problems with moisture getting in?

I've done it to mines as well. its fairly simple, if you got the patience for it. I wrote a thread on how to do it, it also shows how to do a retrofit if you ever want to give that a go. Here's a link to it.

Take a look and hope it give you some insight on how to go about this.

Is there a post to run the led strip for your fogs? and how to wire it up to the parking lights?
