Then you will need to Right Lamp another $525 then the labor to put them on. The only Problem... they are DIM Halogen Lights and you can barely see the road. So for about the same price... the HID Lights t Thirteen put in the lamps I can go wrong at all.

    Here's a crazy idea. Do you think it would be feasible to add the factory lower running light housings from ATS premium trim models modded with switchback strips inside, thus using the combo of switchbacks you added to headlight housing and the lower ones as turn signals instead of the factory turn signal? This is how turn signals work on the 2014+ CTS, which I always thought were extremely cool. Or might there be legal concerns in not using the lights designated by factory for turn signals?

    I like the way you think. I need an ATS because of its size. And it seems to me that the LED strips you're using have a more modern continuous light than either the ATS (premium models) running lights or CTS (standard) running/turn lights, those being designed 7 years ago or so. So cool if you can't see individual lights on the strip.

    ​@@Bythirteen I know LED isn't suitable for all applications, but I supposed in a unit designed together LED might do ok simply because I drove a Mercedes c300 with factory LED light option and they seemed pretty good. Also I think The Retrofit Resource in a recent comparison video said the latest MM MLED was the "goto" retrofit. I'm not arguing with you just trying to understand. Do you think the HID is better because of the reach? BTW I'm looking for a used ATS soon and if I find one I'll be contacting you. It's amazing how few models have the better lighting option, so a retrofit for the halogens makes the ATS a much more viable option IMO.

    This looks really good, you did an awesome job. I'm interested in this and if you're still willing, I'd commission you for this job once the weather clears up and I can rely on my bike. I do have a question about the DRL function though. With my ATS the headlights are always on. Day or night, they'd run the halogens so how does this look in the day time when the vehicle is running and the headlights are set to automatic? Is the HID and the strip on? Or just the strip?
