We're sorry, but we don't have any; this one only supports DIY, so please bear with us.
They fit inside my 2013 Honda Accord's headlights, but I'm not sure if this is true for all makes and models.
I have one with two glued-on caps on each end and a slit in the bottom for the strip to slide through.
Only when you trash them, like I did, can they be cut! This was not a wise investment! You can't cut them from an operational standpoint.

I bought three different brands of these led running lights to try to replicate the look of a friend's Audi headlights, and these are by far the best! The design, both inside and outside the tube, is of the highest quality. Other businesses do not take the time to correct the minor flaws that lead to the failure of these leds. This led strip is also the best at distributing light evenly across the entire strip rather than in a spotted pattern. To make the comparison more clear, I'll post a picture. Furthermore, regardless of how you twist, mount, or turn this tube, it produces an even light. Finally, despite the fact that the amber light is significantly less bright than the white (along with every other led strip out there), I don’t mind because the white is what will be showing 99% of If this length is sufficient for your project, you can avoid the hassle of receiving products that do not match the pictures and dealing with Amazon returns. **This company's LEDs are at the bottom of each photo, with pictures taken from three different angles on the LEDs** br>br>.
These LED lights are fantastic. They are in excellent working order and can be bent at a 90-degree angle. I installed them on my own, but you'll need some basic electrical knowledge. THESE ARE NOT SEQUENTIAL LIGHTS AT ALL. The only thing they do is blink. If you're doing it yourself, Turning signals are yellow, position lights are red, and the ground is black. Because every light in a car has a positive and a negative/ground, you'll need to use a tester to figure out which is which. If you're not sure you'll be able to do it, don't do it yourself. You may accidentally cut wires that must be replaced as a matter of law. This object gets five esau stars.
They are, however, extremely effective.
Do not exceed a two-month period of time. Don't make the same mistake as me and throw your money away. They don't last long; after two months of use, they began to turn off partially. I completed a mission that involved opening the headlights and installing them.
Because the wires were thin, connecting them was more difficult than it should have been. I installed these myself, and while I am not a mechanic or anything, I will post photos as soon as I am able. I'd give it five stars if the wires weren't so thin. I'd make another purchase. Also, the delivery was very quick. br>br>update from September 25th, 2018. One of the lights has gone out, much to my dismay. Worked for about a week before passing away. My other light (from the same company) that is connected to the same wires is still working, so it's not a wiring problem. I'm disappointed because I disassembled my headlights and now have to reassemble them. I'm going to give a replacement a chance to do the job properly. br>br>8/28/19br>Since they sent out a replacement, it and the other side have been working flawlessly for over a year.

These lights are fantastic. When I got tired of trying to get inside the headlights, I came up with another plan. I used automotive double-sided tape and sand paper to remove the actual strip from the rubber housing and apply it to the outside of the headlight. They've been on since Christmas of 2017, and it's almost March of this year, and they're still working perfectly. They've been snowed on, rained on, and dosed with plenty of road salt here in Idaho, and they've held up admirably. I'm not familiar with how the amber signal works because I don't use it.

It has a clear direction. They're cool lights in general. One issue I've noticed is that when the wire is to the left, the white strip of LEDs is on the bottom, and the amber LEDs are on the top, so if you wanted to run it so that the wires were both on the outboard side, one would be brighter than the other. As a result, if you want the same brightness, you'll need to run your wires in the same direction. Also, if you have constant power going to the white, when you turn on the amber (like your turn signal), the white is cut off and the amber is powered. The white will turn back on once the amber is turned off.
