Mini H1 Retro

I'm going to be cutting up my heads for my Mini H1 retro soon(ish) and plan on doing a couple other things while they're opened up. The entire headlight is going to be blacked out, including the shroud and stock reflector bowls. I want to take some single row led strips and fill in the 3 lines above the turn signal, and maybe add an angel eye circle to the turn signal pod also.

Does anyone know if they make amber/white led strips? or angel eyes? It'd be pimp to have them all switchbacks, but if not I'll just get all ambers

There's these on amazon also. I would just trim them down, unless it's possible to cut the 30cm in half and have two usable 15cm lights

Found these. I could wire them to where the white is on with running lights, then only amber with turn signals. Right?

Anyone have the schematic for our turn signal wiring? If it's Running light/Ground/Turn then I can have the white wired to running/ground and amber to turn/ground.

Check the retrofit source. They have top of the line xbaled leds there. Ya a little more but better then what you can get on Ebay.

Dang seems like everyone is going with the strips above the turn signal. By the time I get around to it it'll be out of style ha.

Well that's a good answer! lol
I like the matchboxes for fogs, they do brighten things up more.
