For anyone who wanted to do this..

I couldn't find any pictures on what to do... but I put a couple LEDs in my fog lights, and I took some pictures of what I did in case anyone was wanting to do that... I basically just winged it so it isn't perfect but hopefully it will work out great!












Not perfect, but it looks alright I think... I also sanded down the ends of the LEDs so the light is more spread out rather than focussed on one spot...

Splice them into the markers then. I had the same for my side mirrors.

yeah I just drilled two holes in the back (one on each side) and slid the LED in .. Then used this adheasive stuff I had left over from clearing my headlights to seal it... It looks awesome.. I took some pics.. Give me a few minutes to get them up.

heh.. I have no idea how they got like that... I think they were like that when I bought the car... I tried to take them apart so I could at least clean it out... I think sometime, I'll have to throw them out and get new ones from a junk yard or something...


I wired them to the side marker lights... but unfortunately, they blink when the turn signal blinks, cause the markers blink too... but it's not too noticeable when the fog lights are on...

came out pretty good! I like it, maybe you could replace the foglight bulb w/an all blue bulb so it's more noticable!

yeah blue lights are pretty illegal. When I was looking at getting underbody neons, I was checking out the legality of them in Canada. In the legal document that lists all the lighting and mechanical requirments for Canadian vehicles, rule one was no blue lights on the vehicle.

well it's nice having them in the fog lights, cause when they are on, the fog light pretty much cancles the blue light out for the most part, but if you turn them off, they glow pretty darn good... So I don't think I'll be getting in trouble..
