Never noticed there are so much orange in there until I did the before and after comparison.
Looks fine, nice job. Did you use the soldering iron method to remove the amber plastic filter or another method? Also what are the blue lights and where do they come from?

Thanks. Yeah it was the soldering iron and needle nose plier method. The blue tinted fog bulbs light up white but I can't recall where I got them from. If you search "white H7" on e bay, I'm sure most of them would work just fine.

To finish the mod off, you need to replace the indicator globes with some silver finish ones or LED's so that there is no orange showing in there at all until the light flashes. I did the same, figured I'd gone to the trouble of attacking my new late model lights with a soldering iron, I may as well treat them to some no-orange lights as well!

I was looking at chrome indicator bulbs on ebay but not sure of their quality...Where did you get yours from?
Is anyone actually using LED indicators? Any problem of error codes?

Thanks, I have had a few bad experiences buying chrome indicator bulbs on ebay for my Audi, they didn't last very long. Although the ebay fog lights work great.
