    So last night I embarked on the "Raptor LED Grille" challenge- I took my time and installed the LED'S from "Oznium.com"- let me know what you guys think?

    Thanks! It was kinda a pain in the a$$, but in the end I was happy with it- if anyone plans on doing it the 6mm LED'S are perfect size , not to bright to over power the other lights but yet bright enough to fit in with the other lights. Ran loom behind the grille and tied ueverything up behind the grille to look factory as possible..

    Was thinking of doing this to the Pro grille but I ain't looking to doing any modification to it. Did you have to do any drilling? Link to those LED's you got?

    Thanks.

    Yes , had to pull the entire grille out-then seperate the grille, drill very carefully through the grille from the top, if you take your time, measure it out ,it's very possible with just a simple drill and time.
    I used the amber , 6mm & purchased their cheap 6mm drill bit..

    Thanks.

    I was hoping to not drill anything.

    Where'd you end up tapping for it to come on?

    They do not come on with the DRL's - only the actual running light/parking lights

    I didn't want to drill either but when you put the two pieces of the grille back together you can't see any of the drilled spots.

    Flush mount LED'S- hidden and flush during the day but nice and bright at night!

    Oh I see.

    What do you think about tapping into the fog lighst? I always run DRL and fog lights together that's why.

    Would that draw to much power?

    Not sure about that one- I do know that the LED'S don't draw hardly any power- I wanted mine so that they only come on at night when I'm using the headlights- and be able to run my DRL'S during the day without the LED'S-
