You've got a good one there Aido ;)

How did you handle the parking lights (or lack of) - wire direct to fogs?

Its a good one alright! I do my best to keep it in the best condition possible as you did :wink:

I put fairy lights in the fog light units so I have a circular ring of leds as parking lights. Looks really well too :D

Just have to put the decat back in tomorrow.

I just opened up the fog light units, cut the strips of leds to size and glued them into place around the lens with silicone. Then just put it all back together. Theres was about a 15-20mm gap between the lens and the fog light reflector so there was loads of space to fit them.

I'll take a photo tomorrow and upload it. ( Have to figure out how to upload photos;)
