ITS HOT AS HELL.. well it took a lot of time but its worth it.. did you do the LEDs to the turning signals and reverse lights also??

Shiraz · 10-25-2003, 10:58 AM

Can you see the LEDs from farther away??

I think it looks OK...but like jstn003 said, you get

for originality (although I think I've seen one other member on here w/ LEDs in the taillights). Nice work though; how long did it take you to do the whole thing??

stekson · 10-25-2003, 11:21 AM

where in NJ are you? cause if you were to make those tail lights i'm sure you could find some people who'd want them

**BRAISKI** · 10-25-2003, 11:33 AM

Nice, I was actually looking at those LED lights this week, and when I check our tail light the read are actually see through

good to see pics.

He had led rings like g35 coupe. I posted pics with different leds inside few months ago. They are not finished yet. I have to figure out how to make electrical shit work, how to mount the light inside the taillight etc. This is just ghetto rigged beta version to see how it will look like and if it makes sense to spend more time doing this.

aurilleous · 10-25-2003, 12:33 PM

I like the way that those look too. Nice job man...

SaxinRSX-s · 10-25-2003, 12:54 PM

Looks good!

Now, u just need to get them on your car.

Did u drill through the back of the housing then slide them through? How did u secure them in place? And, did u figure out how to have them dim for parking lights then bright for braking?

I took the taillight apart

They are not secured I have to figure out how to do it shouldn't be hard.
Electrical part...that's the problem I played around with the light today and I can't get brake light working. Tail only

ShoDaoGUN · 10-25-2003, 01:58 PM

Wow, that looks like a promising work in progress. Do the leds get more intense when you depress the brake? If so, these seem a lot like the g35s.

asdff · 10-25-2003, 02:19 PM

SiFuSpEc · 10-25-2003, 03:17 PM

//RacingSpirit>> · 10-25-2003, 04:25 PM
