The leds on the the b8 dont even mirror the lines of the front of the car, just looks like leds for leds sake.

There's a thread on www.tyresmoke.net giving full details how to fit LED DRLs on an RS4 - without the bulb failure warning getting upset.

I guess that makes all Aston V8 (etc) drivers chavs and fags then? Hmmm, I somehow doubt it.

Those look a lot better than the standard yellow tint bulbs.

That looks much better andy.

I don't fancy doing the modifications to ensure the LEDs don't throw up a bulb failure signal though. Isn't there simply a normal bulb with blue/less yellow light that we can use?

Kevin, it's on tyresmoke, the detail

Alex, it is not really a big mod, just connect a resistor with clips, takes about 30 seconds to do. There is no other bulb type available, the US guys found one, but that melted the holder. Theses bulbs are smt LEDs so no heat at all.

Buying an Aston and income doesnt exempt you from chavness. Look at footballers. This whole led is just a fashion accessory as is leaving your fog lights on, the only difference now is that the car makers are giving these idiots something else to leave on (DRL). Really what is the point, why not just switch your lights on if being seen during the day is really a concern. Having said all this I have to say that the picture taken above when its further back does look better than the originals.

At risk of being a 'chav' which is one thing i have never been called before!! I really like the led bulbs in the drl's. I leave my drl's on I guess to make my RS that little bit different. Now i thought I would order them from the web sit in the US but I dont seem to be able to work out which ones to get DO'H !! Any ideas??
