Maybe I missed something, but the video shows a Q7 V12. This has a factory fit LED bar in place of the standard fit side light/blinker bar in the lower grill. The blinkers are moved to where the DRLs would be in the headlight assembly. This is all factory fit and wired.

This is not a video of the Hella retro fit kit. To achieve the same look, you would need to purchase the V12 LED bar, rewire the DRL and blinkers and recode the car with LED DRLs.

If you add the Hella kit, or any other LED strip, you can only wire to an existing circuit and you must either keep the orginal filament bulbs in that circuit or use resistors to mimic a bulb.

The LED tails need a lot of work to retrofit too. They're not plug & play.

It's a standard Q7 with a V12 LED front and rear retro fit. But it's still not the Hella DRL kit and certainly won't cost only $275.
