To answer your question: no. I wanted to tie these in so they would operate in place of the DRLs and fog lights but found out (the hard way) that Honda does all of their electronic controls through ground switching (honestly? why?!) and there's no easy way to make that happen without putting in some transistors and cluttering up the wiring. So I yanked the fuse for the DRL (didn't like the way they looked anyway) and put the tap-a-fuse into location 19. This way the LEDs are on as long as the ignition is on.

Hey everyone, I haven't visited this thread in awhile. I might still be interested in putting together a group buy but so far it looks like I only have a couple people interested: OneFitZ and maybe Hellionz. Anyone else in?

Very innovative. We have something similar to this:

Honda Mugen Style High Power Flexible LED Daytime Running Lights

These LED's seem to be similar to what you are using.. if you are serious about producing these. We can set up a whole sale for this product to use the LEDs.. lmk!

CR-Z Canadian · 10-17-2012, 09:48 PM

Now that's a cool offer!
Looks like you might be in business, youboughta If my fogs fail, I'll definitely be calling on you.

Hellionz · 10-18-2012, 02:08 AM

Come on folks.... who all else down???

Man, if there were a similar size, I'd be all over it! Unfortunately, I'm using a 10mm dome LED that are just small enough to fit inside the honeycomb shape in the bezel; at nearly an inch in diameter, those will be much to large to fit without making some nasty holes. I really appreciate the offer though! Maybe you have something else, like individual LEDs with wire leads already attached?

Really SICK idea--well executed!
