    No, just 1 set. The outsides are my DRLs. The inner set are the TRS fogs.

    Had to replace some cheap leds that were flickering. Fixed a blown cigarette fuse that was probably caused by the LEDs flickering. Washed and waxed the 2011 Prius two which has 81k miles now.

    Here's a shot of the shrouds and one complete. It's hard to see since the car is black. I don't have any lighting shots.

    No, I left the amber lens and the rest alone. It's actually a black chrome paint with clear coat.

    Thx.

    The light in the headlight is part of the G headlight.

    The DRLs stay on when the parking lights are on. I wired up my fog light relay to use the parking light as a trigger.....this way I can run the fogs without the headlights on

    image.jpg I did my first "ROADTRIP" in the persona with the family today.

    Philly burbs to Hershey park, 60mph on CC the whole way.

    I was impressed. Notice my savings...:)

    Am gonna go a little crazy on the way home and set cc at 70 (which is actually the speed limit) and will post results.

    Gotta get home for Eagles vs. cowgirls. ;)

    EDIT: I really lost my mind and set cc at 75-80 for the majority of the highway portion (about 75% highway / 25% backroads) to play the devils advocate and get a baseline for future road trips.

    Well I managed 46.7 mpg per the post trip HSE. so in essence a 4.7 mpg hit for flying like a nut. Not as bad as I would have thought....65-70 might be a sweet spot for road trips.

    Oh and the birds are getting creamed :(

    I could not take it anymore. I had to get it done before the work week. I installed my license plate 24 led lamp.

    I could have not done it without the step by step instructions from 20141214_143445.jpg 20141214_153902.jpg 20141214_153842.jpg @sfv41901.

    Pretty sure that quad output is his oem LED DRL and his new TRS fogs.
