Front LED running light

The LEDs are surface mounted, and you'll need some tools like a head gun and soldering iron. You know Nissan charges almost $750 for each DRL, right? The LEDs are actually really cheap, but the OE part is crazy pricey.

Here's an example of what it looks like pre-mounted on an aluminum base:
CoolBase 10mm Square LEDs

Wow tough work. Guess I have to do over winter time to play around. I wonder if someone ever did it. I saw one guy on forum did it but forgot where he post it at unless you know someone who did it would be nice to show picture so I can see.
