Default LED String Lights Audi, Benz etc...

Everytime I see a new Mercedes, or Audi with the LED running lights It usually catches my attention. I was just wondering if anyone has made any kit for an s2k that looks clean in order to add led running lights? Maybe to the outer vents in the bumper? I see they sell the strips of LED lights all over the place but Im just not sure if they would look right on the S. I haven't really seen to many fog light mods so Im not sure how adding lights to the front bumper would look. Any input?

No kit that I'm aware of, but s4play has done it... a couple different ways, I think.

Depends on who you ask. I'd say no.

Go to autozone thats where I got mine.....there is no kit you have to do the wiring yourself but they look good....unfortunatly the knuckelhead that backed into to my car took out my drivers side string and I havent been able to find the same exact color!





At night you can see the led's the pics dont do it justice...but overall I think I spent 40ish altogether and i would say its worth it to DIY

I took the bumper off and these lights have the led's on the very edge of the strip, so I stuck the strip on the bottom of the healight with the led's facing out.Then put the bumper back on and aligned it properly!

Good news guys I didnt give up my hopes and went to autozone and found the lights again.....so I replaced the right side and they look great!! The day time pics are before I found the lights again thats why its the left side......the night time pics are from a few minutes ago of putting the right side back on!! ENJOYY!!






AT night they still look like LED's just like the day time pics only they are alot brighter....the picture doesnt make them look like led's at night
