Headlight LED....V4
Hi Guys,
Haven’t posted for a while with pics so I thought it was the day.
Due to events beyond my control, I had to go back to the drawing board for my headlights LED V3. As you all know, LED technology is growing really fast and we even see now main headlight beam LED powered. So after endless hours of tests and brainstorm, the pictures below will unveil my V4. Still, really difficult to take a correct picture to show the real brightness.
Integration and power supply management (ECU fault codes) was a real challenge but I think I succeed, at list time will tell. Downside: new technology has a price and they are not cheap. Nevertheless, we are now really close to the B8 brightness.
Either you hate or you love (reading the forum) does not matter, I will respect and appreciate the comments.

I really like the look. I think you nailed this one and really did a great job. Also really like the body mods and the RS4 grille.
Nothing negative here. When you are all done how about submitting a DIY? You can submit to Nothing77 who is in charge of cleaning up and improving our DIY section.

Re: Headlight LED....V4
Not sure, what specs are these V4s/V3s etc? I always measured LEDs by their size. The LEDs I have for my fog lights are 5050 SMDs. Anyways, that's a great look and I love the wheels! Those are the exact wheels I would like to install on my A6 one day. Those are VMRs, correct? Anyways, it looks great.
