LOL, but what's the fun in that!!?!?
Yeah, no doubt that that's the smartest move. I've never seen myself as a vette guy, but hard to not be tempted by that new body!

Since Jeremy has no new updated pictures today, I have an update for you instead....



The Carbon Fiber dash was installed today on the Stingray.
















That is all.

:gtfo: Steve, really? That's friggin awesome, man!
I have a MINI update...I finally found the LED 7443 bulb to end ALL 7443 bulbs...it's new technology called plasma LED. I had a terrible go at finding a BRIGHT amber led bulb that worked properly, that was bright both as a parking light and as a low beam and signal that didn't get so hot it desoldered the board.

These are awesome!

Those new LEDs look great.
I need something to replace my 120 LED ones.
I really can't see them in the reflection of a car unless I'm signaling.

ebay seller?

Oh ya, no doubt the Triton's are brighter - but let's find out how much brighter!

I noticed something when installing the tritons... I see things... I see dead lights

Thanks boys...I'm not certain what it's "really" called but I had a bish of a time reading up on it and finding them. I guess LEP is the real name?

Tritons are probably brighter, but ask Austin about reliability of them...

I'm happy with these...
Thanh, looks like price came down!

Okay, daytime pics, obviously this is just parking lights, which i NEVER run during the day...so imagine signal is probably about 40% brighter than that when it's JUST signalling. Plenty bright for the day time.

Justin, shield your eyes!
