From all of the Audi LED strips that you guys have bought, which ones do you think are the best in terms of quality and brightness? Would it be

i just ordered these a couple days ago, ill let you know how they look. Are you going for the "blocked" look? or the evenly spaced look? I got a set from Super Bright LED Car Lights, Automotive LED Bulbs, LED Strip Lights, HID Light Bulbs, HID Conversion Kits and more and they are the blocked looking ones, didnt want that so im just gonna use them somewhere else on the car

24cm = 9.4in. for $25 yikes!

@LiveReckless010

From seeing Audi Style LED Strip Lights | Flexible LED Strips | LED Driving Lights, I am persuaded to buy these not to mention 20" seems like it would be almost a perfect length for our headlights - but I'd have to measure.

24" on my headlight is 100% perfect length so i dont think 20 will really cover it. i bought the a5 strips and i love the look. as far as brightness, the ozniums.com lights are by far brighter than the a5 strips but theyre also thicker so less thing you can do with them. my fog light strips are extremely bright.

the first pic is up close to the oznium strip. second is the 24" a5 strip. the 3rd is just comparing and lastly, the final

the only problem with those strips, is that they are too thick and will not fit under the headlight. the headlamp will not be able to be installed back

@Aidensgrand

So you would recommend Side Emitting "Headlight" LED Strip ? I can clearly see the difference and I too seem to like the look of the ozniums. However, would I have to order 2 quantities of the 2 foot cool white -- $60!?!

well no if you want the led's under the headlight because it work fit. if you want them for brightness then yes i would go with them.

i was referring to the oznium lights or the link that main m posted. those strips are too thick and your headlight will not pop back in. the a5 strips will. :)

i have the side emitting ones and they are extremely bring and are ridiculously thin. the guys i got mine from were BP Customs Autosport they were like 25 i believe, but i got a few other things to so im going off memory here, but they are real easy to hook up and are real bright. I believe they have different colors too.

The oziums will fit under the headlight but since they're so thick, the headlight will not snap back into the car. That's why I ended up putting them ontop.

@ordersup, have you installed those strips yet? Id like to see what they look like :)

i can get them off my other car they're on if ya want? its a tc and the headlights on that thing are tighter than any other car, you actually have to slide them out of a clip attached on the car and slide down the fenders just to get them out, its insane how tight they are. so i can get a pic of that if you want.
