Ugh, those amber front turn signals and parking lights! :thumbdown:

I hope to be rid of those next week.

Do the LED fog's turn off once you hit either signal ??

It seems like they do, yes. I believe it's a mandated safety feature due to the strong light output of the LEDs. I know a lot of folks modify their Audi's with the LEDs to not do the "wink" (one light out) when they turn a signal on. Here is a video of an Audi A6 modified to have the LED stay on with the signal.

Ugh. Give me a break ...... I shouldn't be surprised. Refraining from injecting political rant here.

I wonder if its an official mandate, since Porsches and Lexus dont do it. In the case of Porsche, its too bad they dont, because it is indeed hard to see the turn signal because of the bright LED running lights.

Are there any LED kits out there for the amber parking lights in the bottom? Can you share link

I came across a set on a site called ijdmtoy.com. They have error-free switchbacks (changes from white LED to amber when signal is activated) that dont require a harness or relay. I want to call them tomorrow to make SURE they will fit and work with no issues before ordering though.

Thanks! Keep us posted on the LED purchase and install. This is a key mod.

I agree, its definitely a must; that amber looks terrible and has to go.

If you are installing LEDs in a non-LED turn signal location, you will have to install resistors to prevent hyper-flashing from occurring.
