No stopping just keep it up.
Since you are in the Denver area we should get together sometime and then I can check it out up close
I personally would like to do away with the pop ups and run fogs and driving lights only maybe theh LED's would work??

Its Micheal Nights car "Kit" ?
What does it say to you when it talks ?
Female or male voice ?
Do the cyclopse center beam on header panel, use a HUGE split Sec A/F that bounces left & right.

thats just the prototype, I did recese them 2 more mm and the curvature of the front lens wasnt perfect so it stuck out at the ends a little. but all thats fixed, just need to build the next set.

I think I must be the only person in the world who think those Audi LED lights look naff. They just look like Christmas tree decorations to me. At least the LED's on the 997GT2 are not on all the time. But then again Porsche have understated style, not overt bling.

I just did something very similar on my Audi A3...
The fog grilles drilled out:
Same thing, backlit intead:
Two grilles loaded with white LEDs:
Test-fired in the workshop using a bench supply:
Same thing, but with the lights out:
Wiring details:
-Now, these are just for fog-repeaters, but I've also ordered a set of amber LEDs for the rows above and below... These will be repeating the front turn signals.
If you don't want to replace the relay on a 951, but want to replace a 21-Watt bulb with LEDs, you can wire a 20-Watt, 15Ω resistor in parallel and that should be sufficient to keep the blink rate from going off the charts.

Perhaps with an ultra contemporary headlight setup these might work, but I'm thinking they just look out of place on our cars. I'm happy to be proved wrong of course. Bring it...
