At jdmtoy, they were suppose to be fog light shrouds but didn't fit so I took them off and wrapped it in electrical tape to make it a bit thicker.

Would I be able to install something like that onto my empty ES fog light covers? I'm guessing holes would need to be cut out?

Actually, since those LED rings are smaller than the original Fog light openings, I'd imgine you Don't need to make any cuts. Just attach them directly to your fog-blanks. Makes for a very simple mod.

The holes on the fog light housing are bigger than the LED. I wrapped the LED in electrical tape to make the circle bigger. Once I placed it I used hot glue to keep it in place. The wires on the LED is sealed with silicone and is water proof. You are able to take the LED out of the shroud it comes in also.

I was bored again today so I decided to try something different. I used the fog light housing that didn't work to see how this would look before i do this to my stock housings. I had some led emitters so I drilled some holes and stuck them in. The wholes are not aligned or equally spaced. I did this kind of quick.

That's actually a good idea, how's it look when on? Also, what did you use to secure the led emitters in the holes?

I havent done anything lately on that. I would probably use glue gun or silcone. Those housings are a little different, still trying to figure out where i would place the emitters on the stock housing.
