figured id post this up.

some here might like this mod and might want to do it to there 8, or any other type of custom led work.

a buddy of mine does custom led work
he has done custom work on my car
and many others (local), a handful on the mazda3forums, a good amount on my350z, and even on ebay.

hes done the audi mod on a friends rx8 (quicksilver)
came out amazing

heres some of his work
rx8 audi mod

350z sequential turn signals

more work on his myspace
http://www.myspace.com/zleds (hasnt been updated in a while, lots of people want custom led work)
all his work is plug and play, unless told other wise


if anyone is interested feel free to message him, but most likely hes too gonna be too busy to reply. PM me for faster replies.



also if this is against any rules or if its in the wrong section etc., i apologize. also no need to flame if i did something wrong, a point in the right direction would be fine.

even better in person! lol
no net price yet seeing as theres many ways to do this mod.
but nothing ridiculous and over priced like cin city.
also this mod does take a while not recommended if there 8 is there only way of transportation or commuting car, its best if you have a DD or another way of transportation, or spare set of headlights.

im also gonna try an get an rx8 lp housing and see if sam can put 15leds(maybe more) in there
i was checking it out(rx8 lp housing) and its similar to the mazda3. i could be wrong though

thats a mazda3 sedan headlights
dual led in each dome
white for daily use and with a flip of a switch they turn green
as my friend calls it the "hulk" mod

some red ones would look killer on your car
thats what i was gonna do but i just went for red halos

just got a net price
for the audi style lights
like so http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5vldeUCaxw
a $50 deposit so sam can start on the led domes
then once the headlights arrive. they can be installed and the headlights re assembled
once finished sam will contact you, and the fee will be $270+shipping.
total of $320 + shipping to and forth

the $50 deposit is non refundable. in case sam already did the led domes and the buyer backs out.

Looks like shit...

The Audi lights look good because they follow the entire bottom curve of the light not just a straight strip. No curves = looks terrible.

I looks like ass,,, It doesnt even resemble the Audi lights,,,
the only car Iever seen that the "audi" stye looks good in is the MS# because it has the same semi circular dip that the RS6 has

more leds are installed upon request
even per dome but that will just make it brighter per dome

dont blame me, just followed the curves of the rx8
and installed the amount the owner of the car wanted and how spaced out he wanted them
take it to mazda if you want to complain about curves or how the owner wanted them

you look like ass? lol
not trying to resemble audi headlights just give it the sort of style with the leds
are you talking about the ms3?
im not here to say which mazda headlight resembles an audi headlight for the perfect audi style look.
just wanted to share for those interested in the audi led style mod rather than installing an led strip where an led can go out or any other complication.
or any other light that has to be switch constantly because of the wedge type led bulbs going out/flickering or not being bright enough.



sorry if you guys took that offensive
or anything at that matter

exactly what I was thinking. I've seen some that look kind of alright but never as good as on the audis.

can you guys do 2 strips of supper leds were the stock fogs go? i have the Autobahn kit so it would need as many needed to go across that space.

lucky for us we dont do conversions
the audi headligths will remain on audi vehicles

Unfortunately, he wasn't referring to the actual headlights/housings, but what is commonly known to be an audi idea for headlights (aka, line of LEDs at the bottom).

i think he's being sarcastic... but whatever, if you want to make your mazda look like an audi ripoff, go right ahead.. to each their own

yes i was.
and thank you

but unfortunately this isnt a thread for opinions on whether they look good on mazdas or if they should stay on audi vehicles.


this is for the ones who are interested in this mod or any other led mod.
