LED DRLs--moisture cover won't fit
I bought 7.5W LEDs from eBay and the DRL modules from V-Leds. The moisture cover won't fit over this setup because the portion of the module that plugs into the bulb makes it too long.
The bulb is identical to the one V-Leds sells in their bundle for the IS.
Any ideas? I assume the bulb can only be inserted one way because of the arrangement of tabs (going clockwise 2 of which are wider and 2 are narrower). I suppose I can Dremel them to make them fit any way I want but that will compromise fit.
TIA

Thanks for the link. I didn't really want to invest that much time so with some more investigation I was able to cram everything inside the cover. There is actually some space below the bulb housing where I pushed the Vleds module's connector and the module fit behind the bulb.
The driver's side was a pain because there was practically no space to maneuver but the end product looks great. The LED is actually brighter than the halogen (obviously only during DRL mode; I haven't tried high beam yet but the bixenon HID high beam alone should be adequate).
