Fog Light demon eye mod

I did this on my cobalt...

To start you need to remove your foglight projector and get an LED strip. I chose blue for mine but you can obviously do any color.

Then you trim the LED strip down so it will fit without overlapping at all. I ended up cutting my strip in half.

Next you drill a hole in the projecter housing and feed the LED strip thru and secure it in place using double sided tape.

As you can see I also put a rubber grommet in as well to help seal...Before I actually install them onto the car I will but a bit of silicone in to completely seal it up.

Make sure everything is in place and test it out!

I have no idea how this will hold up over time, but I had an extra set of foglight housings so I figure wth. It's worth a shot! I'm about to go to bed so I'll update later today when I get everything put in. and then pics once night falls :)

And here are the installed pics:

Here they are installed:

So if you don't know and can't tell what a 'demon eye' mod is. It's when you put a colored LED ring into a projector housing to make it glow that color, but you are still able have the normal use of your light.
