LED running lights

Looking at adding some bling to my car and adding running lights but not doing the LED headlamp conversion.

Does anyone have experience of adding these below the bumper within the black plastic insert mesh? Looking around you can buy them in Halforda and I've see them for as little as £4 on eBay...you can even buy strips that you place over the headlamps but I'm not sure these would work that well and may look cheap.

Does anyone know where the wires would run to? Obviosuly they would run from the ignition feed but I'm curious as to whether I an do this myself relatively easily. 2009 Vogue TDV8 Nara Bronze

Rich, i think you have to be careful as to what you put on the front of a FF as its very easy to make it look cheap & tacky my friend...£4 DRL's don't sound too classy on an originally £40k FFRR Rolling Eyes

Fitting led rings inside tthe foglights is about as discrete as you can get.

Sounds like a plan but the images on the link aren't there anymore so I can't see the end result.

Sorry about that, had a clear out of pictures.
If you click on "this" in the first post you will find Disco 3's fitted with them.
They look exactly the same on an FFRR.

Just read it and sounds quite complicated. I'm not that technical so I don't think I'd be any good splicing and soldering wires... 2009 Vogue TDV8 Nara Bronze

I think DRLs could be added, if the design was right.... Seen some on a RRS that were set into the bumper, the owner said they were a Phillips item, it is one of those jobs that if done wrong, or poorly executed could really spoil things. You need the factory look....and just sticking them in the slots towards the centre of the car would be pointless and illegal
How about changing the spots to DRL, plenty of these on the bay?
