    Headlight LED Project = DONE !!!

    UPDATED - UPDATED

    Few days ago, I told you that I was working on incorporating a LED strip into the A4 headlights. I finally found a Donor for this project and I would like to thank him very much for send me his spare set of headlights and his trust (he will recognize himself). Took the opportunity to do the CC Mod as well
    Then, it was time to work and here is the outcome. Because some of you asked, I took some picture far from the car to give you an idea of how bright they are, even in daylight.
    Tomorrow, I'll test them on another car (without Xenon) to make sure that they don't throw a code (I hope my math is square ) and then this WE, I'll do the mod on my car, Xenon equipped but it's a bit more work because I'll have to find a location for the resistor

    After a bunch of color test, I ended up making my own color and I am really happy by the match




    Friday:

    Took the day off to take care of the Xenon project. More complicated than the Halogen for numerous reasons: LED are connected to the DRL but when you switch to City light, DRL is disactivated. Then, to prevent any fault code, I had to deal with 2 different imputs: 4W & 21W. Anyway, I came up with a little circuit board, found a nice location (metallic is mandatory) and voila. I drove the car tonight, and it looks amazing!!

    Took the time to paint the inside black


    She is mean already


    And then



    With Xenons



    Comments always welcome
    Cheers and ...... Drive Safe

    Looks nice but I think it extends too far towards the corners. You might wanna take out 2 or 3 leds from the there (blinker area)

    Re: Headlight LED Project = DONE !!!

    So when you install it to halogen light, did you disable the Citylight and replace the LED wire to city light wiring?
    So if that is correct when you install in the DEPO housing you have to disable the angel eyes and replace the LED wire to angel eye wiring right? do you still have to put register or anything to error code free on halogen setup?

    Do you glue them on top of the "chrome" plastic? A little bit hard to see on the pics

    The only way in your case, is to drive with the city lights ON. As I told you before, come down to my town, drop the car, spend the day at the beach and at the end of the day, you can go back home with the MOD done

    ok this might sound completly retarded but are my city lights on when my regular headlights are on?? meaning that when i turn on my headlights these LEDs will light up.. and then if i want them on without the headlights i would just turn my switch to the first click??


    and the more i look at this, the more im considering the drive down to mia

    You are getting me lost!!!
    Let me try to explain a bit better:

    Halogen: Because you don't have the DRL function, you will have to select at list, City lights ON (first position on your selector) for them to work. Then, whatever position you use, they will stay ON.

    Xenon: A bit more complicated here for 2 reasons:
    Today, I am wiring the LED to the DRL function (replacing the 21W bulb)
    1/ Problem number 1: A resistor needs to be installed to compensate the bulb. This resistor needs to be secured outside the headlight housing, attached to the chassis. I will provide instructions later
    2/ When we select Xenon ON, the DRL bulb is now OFF, means the LED are disactivated. I am working on a little circuit board to correct this issue.

    I hope it's now clear
