Canyonball

Mokos23

Looking at those LEDs again, I want one!! Is it possible if you could make the third brake light the one in the back windshield have LEDs too?

kchotai

Yo Mike ...

U guys did a great job .. the best i could come up with are Spider Lites .. and that doesnt look too good .. since it's clear thru the tail lights ..

Please let me know .. when u guys are ready to market n GB .. i have at least 20 orders (i m sure) all the way from singapore

Here we have the JDM model both CL7 and CL7R ..

cheers bros ...

ps: my email is celestar72@gmail.com ...

let me know .. asap .. we are very interested over here ...

or perhaps u can provide the parts and detailed instructions and market THAT to us .. that will do as well .. we are desperate .. thanks

celestar

Hey .. when u going to market ure mod for the tail lights .. everyone is waiting!!

Ishakir

PLEASE GIVE US MORE INFORMATION!!!

*dies*

derbaff

I want those! I was looking at getting led's the other day, but I may hold off for these.

Group Buy!! A?djaoufgpwenadvsra

CCColtsicehockey

they are not going into production from what i have heard recently

97AcuraCL

this is sheer faggotry. i've only waited what like damn near a year. if i had any expertise in this i'd produce them myslef... theres obviously a market for this and money to be made. i might have to look into this a little further cuz this is just faggotry. sheer faggotry.

Hi i m from Singapore where we do have JDM Honda Accord Euro (CL7), i think it is the same as Acura TSX over there .. at least the shell is the same!

Anyway, i myself driving one and i have been very interested in getting the mods for LEDs for the tail-lights, ever since i saw the pics posted here.

i am in contact with a company in Taiwan which reproduces OEM Taillights to our specifications, unfortunately .. they need a minimum order of 500 pairs before it is feasible to start production and also accordable. i tried asking them to reproduce an initial order of 100, they engineering and RnD department did a cost calculation and came up with a price of $800 per set .. (b4 shipping)

Do u think u guys over there, will be able to make up tat numbers?

Anyway, the nos of Honda Accord euro in Singapore doesnt go beyond 100 .. and not everyone will want it, so i think the market potential is bigger in US and Canada.

Let me know ure views guys!

Cheers

celestar

Was there a reason given .. where did u hear tis rumour from?? Anyway .. if ure in contact with the guys .. why dont u ask them to be good fellows and post the plans and how to build it ourselves on tis site!!

idelgado782

Those Lights are definately HOT! it's a mod i am thinking about getting. Waiting to hear about the $$$ and that will be the deciding factor.

reliability might be an issue...if you search other threads you'd probably find that some people had issues with their license plate LEDs malfunctioning after a few months due to excessive vibrations in the rear (trunk, bumps, etc.) I would guess this can also be a problem for the taillights...

97AcuraCL

thanks for the offer but the dude who was originally producing these was looking at around $400 and even that was alittle steep.

RSX-CT

I know there is a lot of interest in these LED tails, so let me inform everyone that it is possible to have this done for less than $400, I make them.
These can be made to each owner's specified pattern, they can be bezeled so there is no waffle look to the tailights, they can be made extremely reliable, they can be FULLY plug and play.
I believe that you should not see circuit boards and naked LEDs with the tailights off.
Click HERE to see some examples.

jiggaman

u do sick work man, can you do two angel eyes for each tsx headlight?

RSX-CT

I believe that may be possible, but it might look funny. The high beam and low beam are seperated by the turn signal and that space may make them look a bit strange?

celestar

but 350-400 for just retrofitting is i think a knock off ..

for that price we should be getting new lamps .. and not using our old ones ...

i am still in talks with Honda as well as OEM manufacturers from taiwan to make and market the product ..

cheers

Ride Slow Homey

thats really not a good deal. LED bulbs are not very expensive. There's a good amount, but not that much craftsmanship that is going to be done to the brake lights for that kind of price. Also, tell me what your going to do while your brake lights are out of the car.. how are you gonna drive around while these guys work on it?? I thought about getting my rims chrome plated.. then I realized I would nothing to roll on if I sent them out!

RSX-CT

Well, that depends, look at the cost of a new pair of OEM tailamps, even with my wholesale account with them they are not cheap. It requires hours and hours of work to be done correctly, custom manufactured pcb, etc.
The stuff you get from taiwan/china/india are cheap for a reason, they often leak, look and feel cheap, and with LEDs you can bet they will not be "life of car parts" like they should be. You get what you pay for.

RSX-CT

It only takes 3 days after the first person gets it done, and you can always use another pair of tailights to have the work done and sell them afterwards. Once again, spending time in front of a computer to CAD custom pcbs with voltage, polarity, heat protection etc to each customer's specs costs money. As well as the actual time spent building up the assemblies. LED bulbs, I assume you mean the aftermarket replacement bulbs, these are a joke. One, they are not protected from voltage swings and polarity as the alternator field crashes when you shut off the car. Then, compared to the bulbs they replace, they are not as bright and resulting output pattern in conjusntion with the stock optics is pathetic.

RSX-CT

Oh, and the OEM manufacturers for Automotive lighting are not located in Taiwan. Most car companies use a very few select companies. HONDA uses Kioto, a Japanese company and thier US subsidiary NAL, both of which want nothing to do with aftermarket lighting.

chuson

RSX-CT, read my other post?
Send me a price~ and also I want to see how's it look on TSX? Is the light pattern the same as the RSX on your website?

celestar

I agree that Time and Effort has to go into designing thru CAD and fabricating the PCB. But once u have the mould .. making more .. pieces wud be a breeze!

Perhaps we could get a group buy going, where if 20 or more people order from u .. u could charge the retrofit and at more reasonable price. It's like the rest of the guys said .. there is a DOWN time .. when we send u our pair of lights .. and if we were to buy another pair just for that duration .. it is going to set us back another $400 per pair! Unless we get from Scrap

Let us know .. if ure keen on a group buy ... then we can purchase perhaps a few spare lights and send it around .. when their lights are being retrofitted by you!

Tis i think is the best .. for both u and us ...

cheers

RSX-CT

Only problem with your proposal, is it limits the design process to one set design. I can tell you from experience that not everyone wants the same design, and I have created a system around that. Every single person can have a different design/pattern. For example, not that anyone would probably do this, but you could have smiley faces across the back of your car, while someone else could have G35ish circles.
I'm not opposed to a group buy of sorts in the interest of getting costs down for everyone involved.

celestar

You chose the design .. the photo's that was posted on the 1st page of this subject .. caught a lot of peoples' attention .. perhaps .. u can create that design and market it .. here .. and we start a group buy to bring down ure costs .. so that every one benefits!!

let us know

97AcuraCL

the way i always invisioned a group buy was YOU the seller buy a set of tail lights and do the do the work on them. when the 1st person buys a set, you send the already finished set to them, and they send you theirs with nothing on it. as you're working on that set that you've just recieved, another person orders when you're done you send that set you've just completed while they return to you thir stock set, and so on and so forth.

I compltely like the idea of being able to do the 'original' unique design, but if i can get the basic circles for 200$ thats good enough to me, rather than $400 for a unique design that personally will probably be damn near the circle look anyway.

just my 2 cents.

mltk53

looks awesome!! i want one now~

RSX-CT

Our average cost for parts on a lot of jobs is just about $200. Honestly, that price will buy you that "waffle" look of the Radio Shack perf board, maybe.

celestar

Well as i mentioned $200 is easier for many to swallow! If i can get an order of 50 sets from u .. will u be able to fix a price .. and let me know!

it will be the basic design on Page 1 of this Thread

cheers

man...can't wait to get these
