what ive been up to.

Ok ill try to do this chronologically.

First i did was the foglight v 2.0



Note the passenger side doesnt have the fog light sheild removed.





next i moved to the interior.

I did the led upgrade on the interior bulbs.





I did a custom led dome light with 10 super flux leds ( the beginning of the led bug)



I didnt get any far away night shots but its bright as hell

next i did the color matched grille and headlights as well as my led parking lights.




I did the custom rear courtesy lights
note first pic is taken thru a 20% tinted rear glass.




Last i did the indicators and reverse lights. i used 5mm amber and 10 mm whites







LED INDICATOR VID 1

Those vids aint workin, maybe not yet. Is there a way of telling us or maybe just me lol how you put the boards together, and when you say you opened the tailights, did you have to bake them or what. Ive never really looked at my tailights. Did you have to put resistors so theres no hyperflashing or did you change the relay.

ahm well the led turnsignals i didnt have my digi when i was building but if you go to hidplanet.com/forums and join they have all these write up s that show you how to do it.

as far as the hyper flashing. i put the board closer to the lens and just put the bulb back in there. i spliced into the posi and negative of the tail light harness to make it work and just wrapped the bulb with electric tape. so that it didnt show the slowness of a regular bulb. or melt the wires.

as far as getting the tails apart you have to bake them at 200 for like 10 mins and then theres a lil screw on the far side (away from the trunk side) it will only turn when the glue is hot. then slowly take it apart. and ps dont do it from the far side to trunk start from the trunk side when pulling them apart. ( trunk i guess i should have said inner part of the tail and outer) but you get it.

yeah i guess youtube takes some time to actually get the vids to work.

If it isnt of any trouble, is there a certain thread you were looking at that showed you what to get, and how to do this? Can you PM me the link or something? Thanks cause that shit is awesome and LEDs are a Gods gift to vehicles lol.

ill b honest with you. i had an altima that i retro fitted to hid projectors. thats how i found it. ive been reading that site for the last 2 years or so and im still scared of some of the things they do. i started with something small (dome). and moved from there.

theres a site

http://www.theledlight.com/ledcircuits.html

there are alot of faqs on that site but heres a wizard to figure out the resistors.

http://led.linear1.org/led.wiz

hit me up on aim twanpd4 or msn antoine_70@hotmail.com and ill try to share my knowledge

Most impressive. You beat me on my next project. Are you going to do the brake lights next?

Also what did you do for the rear courtesy light? What did you use and can you take daylight pics of the workmanship?

Nice, I wanted to leave that silver ring around the hi-beams just like you did when I painted my headlights as well but I figured it would be too hard to get an even line, not all your pics are working for me tho.
