Switchback Side Markers
Not for everyone!!!!
DIY to follow Just did one and took some snap shops while working and now ima do the second one. here are some pics
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.

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?

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!!

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.

i think you should bro you are the LED KING in here.
Thanks for those who gave props. it was rough but after all said and done THAT SHIT LOOKS HOT and im the only ONE that has them HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
heres are some videos with them on the car.
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

^^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.
