 Here is your answer: - Click Here -

Not an easy one to search as the words LED or Sidelights are not in the title, I had to go through my "made comments" to find!

Good luck and post pics when done to show all.

It's only a simple bulb change in reality and your English is better than our Bulgarian

 The bulb itself, is what bothers me!
I didn`t understand - is it self-made or i can buy it from somewhere?

would you really want a bulb like that which could be mistaken for an indicator, not a wise move

If you read on it the thread he does say he made them:

The white LEDs become blue when overheated. That's why I'm machined aluminum support to transmit the heat to the outside. (A workshop myself factories for 35 euros a pair, the diodes cost 24 euros + media + LED electric cables + carriers Citroen bulbs are sold 16 euros each!)

Officially, it is illegal to modify the electrical system of the car.

hello, I would make a diagram, there are two versions, the oldest (PROLIGHT model) is difficult to achieve in relation to the new (LUXEON).

 So before someone else asks....

If you would...How much for you to make some and send them to people? Sure some might be interested who don't have the tools or technical expertise to create these.

 Depending on the price, I'd be up for some. BMW's often have front facing orange lights on some of their newer models, so I can't see it being particularly against the law.
