Looks great, I think that's a perfect spot to put those LEDs. Let's see some more pictures of your car.
Thanks for sharing!

I've thought about putting them there too. How do they look when they're off?

I think it turned out great. So the LEDs run at all times? with the DRL and then at night as well?

its a hell of alot better than most LEDs that are on some x50s that I have seen. Im not brave enough to do something like that, but yours by far is the best!!

That's what I would do. Just have the dealer disable your 9005 bulb DRL functionality, wire these LEDs to your parking lights and leave the headlight setting to parking lights during the day.

This was the exact same spot my electrician friend and I used for the test LED's we were working on back in 09. Nice to see more people choosing that spot for the setup.
Thanks for sharing!
