    FYI these LEDs are spec'd 12-30vdc and will run cooler with less amperage draw at 24vdc. I use a step up power board with mine and they pull only .54 amps each at 24v and stay much cooler. If memory serves they pulled close to double that at 12vdc.

    Going to bump this just one more time. Just because these lights are cheap enough and their customer service looks great. They reply to all questions on Amazon. If anyone tries this please post some before and after pics.

    Here some crappy phone pictures I took tonight. The don't do em much justice. I would recommend this mod due to its cheap, easy, and I love it. Only thing I would change is mounting with out zip ties.

    Nice, would like to do this with my aftermarket bumper that houses 4 fogs. Would I have to buy a new wire harness for that? I would like to have a seperate button for the extra 2 so this way I can choose how many to have turned on.

    You'll need to buy the wire harness if you are planning on hooking a pair to the fog light wires.. And the other pair you would just wire like anyother light.

    looks great.

    I took my zip ties off and replaced them with milspec shock cord and so far so good.

    Thanks, now I have to figure out how to install them into the other cut outs. They don't have any mounting areas.

    Why did ya use the shock cord?
