Well, a while back i started this project; and i finally finished.

Here's some pics:

Unlit day:







Running/park lamps day:





Brake lamps day:



Some comparison night pics (LEDs on left, Incandescent on right):

Running park:



Brake:




There's 56 LEDs lit at half brightness with the park lamps, and 80 lit at full intensity with stop/turn.

At night, they're excellent, i'm very satisfied. Daytime brightness is not excellent in direct sunlight, noticeable, but not amazing....but i guess this is true for most cars.


Big thanks to Jon (ExDelayed) and Josch for helping me out with the LED stuff here and there!

As always, comments are welcome, good, bad, whatever...

I like it, although I think that white is the only color i'd like the clear tails on...


What are those reflectors on the bottom of your bumper??

It's just reflective tape, I need red reflectors to stay legal.

According to DOT regulations, i need to add some to the rear sides as well, and move these futher out to properly show the width of the vehicle. So i've still got some tweaking to do...i just need to figure out how to make the reflectors look good.

I know you need to stay legal, so instead of bumper reflectors, I just wanted to throw in another idea.


Best of both worlds?
Just trying to help ya out with that legal crap.
Looks real good the way it is.
