Cool. Give us a pic of it to see how you mounted it. Like with the hood open.

Mount it with 3M double tape closer to edge, tap the wire from corner yellow light.
I'll get some picture when I get chance.

Got use to get it from hidny.com before but I started order from http://www.ddmtuning.com is cheaper $39.99 for kits. I got raptor ballat on my fog light it works fine.
I'm ASE mechanic and do sell to my customer on the side starting 100.00 installed.
Extra money to spend on BS....
Trying to upgrade exhaust for my RDX but no luck yet. worse come to worse I'll make it myself if I have to... do you know anybody?

Too many different colors in my opinion. Either they all should look the same, or the fogs should be yellow.

You have 3 different shades of blue/white

Not really a huge fan. Those LEDs are meant to be in addition to day time running lights or to replace them? It's too much going on. Plus they aren't really in a distinctive location or pattern like the audis, saabs, and mercedes.

Nice hookups. You should get the LED switch-back turn signals for the corners.

I believe he used some form of double sided tape and mounted it on the out side of the lamp housing. If you lift the hood and look at the top of the lamp housing at the forward edge you'll see a little lip where I think he just stuck the LED strip.
We've been asking for pics but.....
