i translated the page for everyone's reference using google chrome.


Hello!)

That made ​​the lights for the 8th generation Accord, cool car ... and even in white, Type-C - looks just gorgeous) only lacked notes exclusives ... which I did) make the machine for Stas0400 , quickly discussed everything and I started to work , did 2 weeks!
So shoot and cut the lantern:


Destroy chrome, solder turn signals and fix them:


Turning on the basis of 1W LED 7pcs / flashlight powered by enhancing driver
Further, all degreased gruntuem, paint and proceed to the module stop marker! All rendered manufactured boards and soldered LEDs ... that's what we have:


Stop module from the front. LEDs 0.5W 12pcs / lantern


The back side of the stop ... then what beauty, right?)


adhesive ring for size based smd 3528, powered by a power supply based on the LM2596


Everything in the collection!
Just paid a matt clearcoat on the glass indicator. That's the beauty comes out guys)


But reversing module on alum. 8mm plate for internal parts based on 4pcs 3W Svetikov a flashlight powered by 2 LED driver circuit!


Then there was more than one hour sweep, assembly, checking on the little things ... and put on the wheelbarrow!
Actually the result! We were lucky in the parking lot and we found the same chord (graphite) and became so close was clearly visible difference between the drain and my work:








And now includes all our beauty!


clearance

Turning

All together))
Well, + a little video (include 720p):

looks pretty easy to do, but 100% illegal.

I have an idea i am debating doing to the inside portions of the rear tail lights.

I dont want to touch main stop lamp on the outsides nor the turn signals. I just feel the inside portions waste all that space in the housing just for 1 reverse light on each side.

It almost seems they were going to put lights next the reverse lights but decided against it.

I am researching the use of LED's with diffusers to get a rectangle to glow.

see my crude MS paint below to get a better picture.

It might be difficult to get the same brightness/color as the brake light bulb. If it is wildly different then it will look out of place.
