New Xenon White/Amber Yellow Audi Style LED Strip Lights (LED lighting strip)

by iJDMTOY on Jul.15, 2010, under New Updates

Introducing the new Audi Style LED strip lights, come in both Xenon White and Amber Yellow Dual Color Switchback Function.

It is perfect for using as both daytime running lights and add-on turn signal lights. These will give you a nice Audi A5 or R8 style LED daytime running lights (also called LED headlights) or the latest 2010 and up Mercedes E Class and S Class LED driving lights (aka LED fog lights)

Here is a YouTube video we took showing how this kind of LED strip lights up like (both Xenon White and Ultra Blue):

also I have included a brief installation diagram showing you guys how to install this kind of LED strip lights (since this is an add-on and if you connect this according to the installation diagram, you will not get error message on dashboard. We have tried on Porsche Cayman, BMW X5 and a Mercedes E Class to confirm this)

We have done installation for several cars in the past weekend. Oh, man, these look awesome! very aggressive appearance and multi-function (daytime running lights and turn signal lights). I have included couple pictures from a 2008 Infiniti G37 Coupe, a 2010 Porsche Cayman, you guys can take a look.
