looks good i just think there should be less LED's and brighter

 

Not feeling it. And your Z isn't feeling it either judging by the tears on one of the headlights.

is your Z emo?

 

not feeling it at all, and up close its not even at all.

 

Looks sad.

 

not feeling it either. way too many leds

 

The LEDs are not aligned - the result looks poor - sorry. Props for effort though and the warning about using the cheap LED strips on the market.

Heat causes the LEDs to fail. You need to manage the heat from the other parts of the headlight. The surface mount LEDs seem to be more commonly used and when used with a heatsink of some kind appear to last...

 

Yeah, WAY too many LEDs and they aren`t alligned properly at all. Those poor $1300 headlights.

Props to being courageous enough to try this mod on your own though.....

 

Irregardless is not a word. It is a double negative. So that aint no good word to use.

Oh yeah, an +1 on those lights not being aligned.

 

ha. I'll try to get some night pics so you can compare brightness. I definitely agree with you guys on what was mentioned. I honestly didn't post this for opinions.. it was for solutions. So I know captain obvious came out and recognized some mal-alignment issues however from more than 3ft away this is less apparent, and at night completely obscure. The original LED strips had 40 led's per strip, so this was the number of holes i drilled. The super flux LED's that I put in over top of the holes was just to cover the 40 holes I drilled for the strip. If I knew of bigger brighter superflux led's that I could have used, I likely would have went that direction... but for those that have searched, the led's used on the Audi's are tough to come across.

I realize a lot of you guys are all about show cars and perfection... but remember some of us just drive them and add little perks when were bored. So chill a little bit... enjoy the show.

 

Looks sloppy and not aligned.

 

More ammo for you.

 

Those are pretty cool. Maybe later some night photos.

 

No, you definately deserve some props for trying something new. All ideas had to come from somewhere.

 

I'll try to get a night time video for you guys tomorrow... then perhaps one of you can see what you can come up with. I know, I know, I know... it looks sloppy.. i get it, but after doing this you'll be surprised by the attention your car will gather, IRREGARDLESS of the imperfections.

 

I take it back, after looking at your audio/video install, I think you need to stop modding and find another hobby.

nah.. def too many LEDs..
and they are tiny too...

 

Looks like some damn Xmas lights man. I would just take them out all together but that's just me. The lights already had 4 LED's in the top corner. What you have done has really cheapened the look of the light.

 

looks like garbage, there are plenty of DIY on here and people that have done this with the proper leds that look just like the audi ones...they are not aligned, there are way to many, if you were going for the audi look you didnt get it, and what is that huge dumb T on the front? sorry but if you want to achieve the audi look i would ask people on here who have done it with the right stuff and do it right

 

Honestly, I wasn't trying to be harsh. Just honest. It's a good idea, just needs to be executed a little better.
