that's also not the finished product just getting a rough idea of how it worked /looked, it'll be two smaller strips one over each headlight
You seem to be mistaken. This is not naziforum, this is MitsubishiForum, where you're allowed to express your opinion whatever it may be, within the rules.

you know there's many fine brands of decaffeinated coffee on the market that are just as tasty as the real thing

Too bad I don't drink coffee.

If you don't like participating in a forum where opposing opinions are also welcome, perhaps you should find another

that was a bit more strident than an opposing opinion, hence the liberal application of sarcasm...

It wasn't missed, it was ignored.

Is it possible to test it wrapping around above the blinker? I don't have that model so don't know if you can reach in above the blinker section, but to me it might look better if it ran above the entire lighting assembly rather than just cutting off at the end of the headlights.

I think it depends on your headlight temp as to which LED temp you should choose, to me warmer goes better with halogen, neutral or cooler goes better with HID. Also as a general rule, the warmer the LED the more output is lost in the phosphor downconversion process, but really in these sorts of application I don't think it'll matter too much.

Any chance of hooking these up to glow at the same time as the corner lights during daytime driving, or would that f*** up the automatic light sensing of the Outlander III?

i'm sure you could wire them up all manner of ways, actually ended up not using this particular string because it was two dingy yellow, found some nice white ones that looked better but one of them was faulty and shorted out after awhile so there's none for now, prolly try again this summer if i can find a better set of side emitters and try them under the headlights
