Somewhat pointless to put LEDs in the fog because due to the lense it would look like a mess because you wouldn't see each individual led.

Side note I have already finished one fog, have figured out a way to mount it and still retain stock adjustment. Will try to post a diy when I do the other projector.

hmm, yeah for this i went with function over form. lol it really does make a difference when driving at night and through the fog.
