First one
Second one
One picture is of it on and the other is off. I can take some better upclose pictures (those are from my cell). The actual thing looks a ton better than the pics, its blue when lit and the little pictures on it are completely visible (off has red in it, second has yellow in it, and the headlights have green in it). Its white when off. I thought that the el would have glown blue-green, but its more blue than anything.

I made it yesterday after the el arrived. The bottom layer is the el, then comes one or two layers of transparencies (for how dark or see-through i want the pictures to be), then i laminate it all with scotch self-laminating sheets. Its a b***h to cut the hole in the middle, but it looks awesome at night (or day). Im looking for laminating sheets that are matte (mine are glossy, although you cant tell) so that the sun doesnt reflect off them. The only problem is that the headlight picture on it is a little high so it doesnt line up perfect with the switch (but i can live with it). Also, im guessing its normal for there to be a high-pitched sound comming from the inverter?

Looks good, maybe a little too bright though. Do the HVAC next... I really need to do something about mine, it just bothers me!

Its nice and bright, but not nearly as much as the pic makes you think, its just the phones crappy camera. It glows nice and blue, but not too much imo. Im going to order a bigger piece of el in a few days to work on my hvac as well.

Heh eyevancsu, consider making a group buy on this if you can perfect it. The headlight switch and the HVAC. You could make some serious cash on this.
