intrest in "joey" mod diy?

Is there any intrest in the "joey" mod DIY?

I've done 100's of headlights for other cars, and have done everything from LEDs, angel eyes, hid retrofits, blackouts, you name it.

If there is enough intrest I will make a DIY for r53's since I am doing mine next week

I'm looking to put something like BMW has in their headlights into the fog lights on my 05. It's basically a ring of light. Either that or LED's in there. Not sure how or where to get something like that though...

Yes, please do the DIY. Even if no one else speaks up, as soon as you are done there will be a lot of requests for it. You know how that goes......
