    I have looked at various kits but none will gurantee that they won't produce a bulb out indicator. Has anyone done leds in their fogs? If so, what did you use?

    Make and model of light would be helpful.

    Also reverse lights and amber turns up front. Has anyone done led's on these?

    I have them in my A4/B7. Got them off ebay for 14$. They are totaly plug&play and come with resistors. They are not as bright as the stock one but i don't really use them. I just wanted the white color when unlocking the car. http://www.ebay.com/itm/121599141520...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
    Just be careful not to mount the resistor on plastic becouse it gets very hot. It melted my plastic a little bit.

    I've done some research regarding B7's and LED fogs. From what I've read online, unless your housing was designed for LED's, the actual light output will be pretty crappy. Best bet is to stay with the stock halogen bulbs upgrade to a HID kit such as the new DDM canbus HID's.

    So...I ended up using my 20w Cree LED bulbs that I got for my BMW halos which I pulled before trading it in. When used in a B8.5, they seem to give a perfect amount of light IMO...of course, they were made for a different purpose.

    In this pic, passenger side is LED...drivers side is stock.

    no bulb out warnings and light output is pretty good. been running these for a few months.
    Fog lights that is, the LED light bar is 24x10w cree and light output is a different story :)

    I replaced my stock Fog lights with these: http://www.hidconcept.com/h8-mautoli...headlight-kit/

    They're fanless. They use a braided cable heat sink behind each bulb. They fit just fine in a 2015 S4. They're as bright or brighter than the OEM bulbs.
