STOP! that is NOT the light you want to use. Look for the set that is about 8 inches wide, has 5 big leds, runs a little over a 150.00 for a set, if you are going that route

IMO, LED strip only looks good on Audis, just like LED rings on BMWs.

Of course you can say ***** here. It's a forum dude with people from all over the place with varying opinions. Some will like what you post and some won't, don't get your panties in a knot when people don't like something and offer that opinion.

umm....you missed his point entirely. He tried typing out whatever word it was and the forum automatically star'd it out. That's what he was laughing and commenting about

Sorry jason....

Try PMing yogregb, regarding the wire connections etc... He just did his faux vent to foglight/air vents conversion a few weeks ago.

I was going to post a pic of a G35 with it on that I found but I cant place the link to the pics. I'll try other options when I get home, I'm at work and I can't do much more with this computer.

Don't get those cheap LED strips, probably not even worth all the work in the end.
