LED strips for DRL
anyone tried using LED strips to replace the reflector's on the stock front bumpers? I only managed to find one person who had posted about it but have had no luck contacting them and I can't seem to find kits or any information on a DIY. And yes I did try google, the best I found was some useless videos showing them off nothing informative

Lots of LEd strips on ebay for cheap. Here's another nice setup-https://my350z.com/forum/body-interior-exterior-and-lighting-diy/550328-leds-on-350z-side-markers.html<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="92"><tbody><tr height="21"> <td style="height:15.75pt;width:69pt" height="21" width="92">

I did not do a writeup cause there are already several.
White markers from Z1, $60. Bake in full size (not toaster) 5min at 250F. Let cool, then crack open w putty knife. Drill a 3mm hole for wires.
Silicone is better than superglue for led strip from Diode Dynamics. Clamp for 1 hr. (Superglue fogged the 1st one i did, had to open it back up and clean the inside w acetone). Reassemble and seal w silicone.
3M connectors for power from the small, low bulb inside headlight, comes on with park lights. Reinstall fender liner. gl, I'll find a pic for you.

thanks jhc looks great and very bright, I'm thinking of just running them onto a rocker/toggle switch to use up the free space next to my heated seats buttons.
