Going to install relay with 2 diodes from corner light to have the switching effect.

materials so far were PLCC-2 LED's, resistors, PC board. soldering skills, and a relay.

NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn AL u crazy!!! lol i will def c this mod in person asap

this is going to be sick.

Holy shit! Now that's creativity. Nice job!!!

nice job. now when you install them you gotta make a vid to let us see what they look like in action. :thumbsup:

:ohsnap: This may be the motivation I needed!!! I wanted to do this but chickened out, nice work. Can't wait for the finished product!!!:thumbsup:

Great idea. How many leds did you use in each marker?

that is bad ass!!! good for you bro... fcking sick... always fun to be the first to do a mod

16 LEDS per light

this is only at 12.4 volts. the car runs at 14.3 so it'll be brighter

NICE!!!! I have the white LED module from oznium in already. I have no problem tearing into the side markers again. You'll have to post up the parts used and where you got them. I'm definitely going to have to do this.

Still testing at home
 

you should start charging people for this service, i'm sure almost all of us would want this done

that looks sweet man..i was going to mod my side markers when it got warmer...but if you're going to start doing this..i may have to opt to get it done by you! :thumbsup:

That's dope man... Now you're gonna make me do this too PLAYA...

Great Job... you're doing your thing... Let me know when you're ready to do another set... ;)

:thumbsup:

I want this too!!

how much for everything all 4!?

Ohh so u next huh?:wish:

Righhttttttt:toocool: lol

^-- lol. Just give me the directions and where to get the parts. I'm good on doing this myself. That just may make us DIYs next as we don't have to send him the side markers. :toocool:

damn... i was finally getting ready to do just white led sidemarkers.... now this comes up

lemme ask you... what are you gonna do to ensure the blink right is even with the front blinkers? obviously, your gonna tap the lead off those blinkers... will that be enough? are you gonna use any relays?

get the info, and i'll come up to kc and we can tackle this togther. or come down to como, i do have a heated garage. :thumbsup:

nice to see u pull it off al nice job

wow...hands down for coming up with this!
i had this idea before, but i had no idea where to begin.

please show us the final product soon.

Son of a gun!!! :bigeek:

Heated Garage! I'm envious. Sounds good, we can get a couple of sets put together and installed when we get the info.

Any Beers??:tongue:
:tgif:

i have a 12 pack of corona sitting in the fridge right now.:chug:

damnnnn look at that, c dats how u gotta do it lol...

2 bad this cold temp suks but dat wont stop me:tomato:

Can't refuse a cold beer!

OH WOW!!! We talked about this before and I was saying this mod was theoretically possible of course but I never thought someone would attack it! Infamous you are the MAN!! Pioneer of the Switchback Sidemarker mod!!, I never thought I'd see the day! I have to see it on the car! Imagine the triple-takes from people with 4 trick switchbacks!! CRAZY!

Should I? Should I not. You know this going to bother me so much I am going to end up doing it. Spring project!!

Yes they blink simultaneously with the side marker cuz i have it wired to the relay positive and the Common of the relay with two diodes .

EVOLICARUS you should start charging people for this service, i'm sure almost all of us would want this done

Dont know bro this one was my first big soldering and cutting into the car mod and it got kinda rough. i got to do it again for my cousin so we'll see how easy that project goes cuz i learned alot the first time up so it should be alot easier.

off the major Deegan near yankee stadium. i never put on the load resistors cuz i liked the lights blinking fast for ya that notice. ENJOY!!

as for parts

PLCC-2 LED's - http://www.oznium.com/plcc-2

PC Board - http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...ductId=2103798 ( or similar to it)

and resistors from Oznium.

Know your Formulas or www.ledcalc.com

i also changed up my boards from earlier becuz my resistor went MIA so i had to change to 12 leds 6 white, 6 orange

Been busy with this for a while so i got to take care of stuff at home ( WIFE) so i'll be on with a DIY type thing in a couple of days

^^^that is so F'ing Tight!!!! i need this done. You should take pics for a DIY when you do your cousins car.

will do i got some but i'll post them tomorrow.

^^as much as i like the switchbacks in the headlights, i was almost ready to put back in the amber led turn signals so they match the fenders, but after seeing your thread i'm on the fence again.
