For those Audi enthusiasts who want to create the LED look in their lower bumper, we have the perfect product. For two years LLTek has supplied an LED kit in various RS4 upgrades at a cost of $444. But wait until you see the LED deal we can offer when you purchase your front bumper or spoiler from LLTek.  Yes, can you say "one dollar"?

a) Understanding the product
A double row of high powered LEDs in a special waterproof compartment which produces an extra bright LED array and is to be used as a DRL (Daytime Running Light). This is a great new look and safety related product that updates the styling of almost any car.  And, it's not just for Audi cars.

b) What do you get?
There are two sizes of this product. The slightly larger version is 9.75 inches and the smaller version is 7.50 inches, both with two rows of LEDs per unit. The larger version has 2 x 10 = 20 LEDs and the smaller one has 2 x 9 or 18 LED's. Spacing between each row of LEDs is one (1) inch.  A unique bracket system is also supplied, although glue bonding along the top surface of the LED is often used to solve some unusual fitting issues. In general, LLTek supplies the larger LED unless we feel the fit is very tight.  And yes, you do get a set for your "one dollar" purchase. Please note there is some curvature to the LED unit and therefore it needs to be created to the correct outer corners.

c) Create your design
Before you install, look at the designated area you want to hang and fit the LED.  Be creative in your planning.  You can also be creative and center the LED in the opening if you want. Sometimes you will need to cut into your bezel.  Sometimes you can place the LED in front of the bezel. The final design and hanging methodology is up to you. 

d) How to install
A set of adjustable brackets come with each LED Kit. Use the bracket system when the LED device is being hung from an upper flange or supported by a lower flange.  Alternatively you can glue the LED strip to the top or even bottom flange. If you decide to center the LED in a grill, you may choose to cut a same size opening in the grill face and insert the LED and then glue into place. Just ensure the grill material is fairly strong so it can support the LED when you choose this method.

e) Electrical connections
Each LED comes with 3 wires and connection is rather simple. Generally we connect the hot (white) wire to power ignition.  This means when the car is started, power will flow.  The black wire is the ground (battery ground is preferable). Although power draw is very low at one third of an amp, an inline fuse on the white wire is recommended.  The yellow wire is our mystery wire.  We recommend you do not connect this wire.  If you want to use it, here is how it works.  The yellow wire controls an automatic internal LED turn-off switch. In other words, when the yellow wire circuit receives 12 volts it will turn off the LED automatically. For instance, you could wire the yellow up to the low beam input wire on the 12 volt line (never after the HID ballast).  Therefore turning on your headlight will turn off the LED.  Or wire it to a turn signal and that input will turn off the LED.  In Europe this is the way a DRL must function. 

The wiring diagram will show you how to connect the wires including the yellow mystery wire should you choose to use it. Generally the auto-off function is not used in North America in an aftermarket installation.

How and where do I connect?
There are infinite ways to connect your newly installed headlight LEDs.  Here is what we like best.  Run the white power wire to "hot" ignition. This means when you start the car, power flows to the LED.  When the motor is off, the LEDs go off. Yes, black wire must be connected to a ground (battery ground is always best). Yes, do not forget the fuse on the white wire. You can install an interrupt switch on the white power wire if you want. Alternatively you can hook into your fog light circuit, your current daytime lights (if you have) or any other contactable circuit. Just make sure that when the motor is turned off, power to the LED is interrupted.
