Thanks!
I'm still working on getting the pictures up.

If there is enough interest in the LED's, I can put together a kit

Yes, I hear the same relay. At first I thought that perhaps it tied into the auto headlight function, which my car does not have. But upon thinking about it again, the timing is too inconsistent for it to be that.
Wish I knew for sure what it was intended for.
Oh, and the only way I can think of to have them do that would be to interconnect them w/the interior lights, but they would not be on very long that way.

Default LED's

I would be interested in a kit like that if you would ever would make a kit. I am looking for some LED's to place in my headlights, also, to resemble the Audi or R8.
