LED Side Lights Fitted

[The-Acre]

Just bringing this post back to life. Would it be possible to replace the sidelight bulbs on the gen 3 GS with LED's and have them as DRL's?

Hmmm, thanks Mark. Sooo many wires, looks like the noodles I've just eaten. It's just a thought really, if I keep the GS I may do it/have it done.  We're already thinking about next year's road trip but annoyingly in my mind I see us doing it in an LS!

That's my car and yes, there were a lot of wires about at that time but like I said, it was just a dry run/temporary lashup. Annoyingly, the pictures of the neat, finished job were on my phone microSD card that died and the car has now been traded in, so I can't show you the finished article.

It really is a simple job to do and takes no more than two hours max. And if I do say so myself, I was really impressed with the job, the lights looked really well. I would certainly do it again if this car didn't already have DRLs.

EDIT: Found one photo which may give you a better idea:

Thanks for the info. I'm seriously considering doing it, even if I don't keep the car.  A good LS will take a very long time to find and there's no rush at all.  I'll let you know if and when I do it.

Thanks again.
