also another led brake light for her brother on a xb.......NICE CADILLACING LOL
post pics soon

 

nice, I would get a ticket for that every time I hit the brakes

 

yeah same..def looks sick but thatd get me in biggggg trouble.. i got a fix it ticket once in my eclipse for having blue reverse bulbs

 

I'd like to get that in red though. PROPS

 

nice, but that is begging for tickets from the popos

 

That would be a nice "fix-it" ticket to take care of. Looks nice though.

 

yeah it has a switch for only shows and meets.......
daily its off.........

 

Elegancexb,
I think that lights are pretty sick. Like everyone said blue is asking to get pulled over but I think I will try to do it in red. You wrote 20" led strip, is that 20 leds or is that 20 inches long. I tried looking for 20 inch led strip but I only find 12 inch strips with 20 leds? Do you find anything tricking about swapping the original lights with the new leds?

 

I actually dig that....nice job

 

that would be awesome in red.

 

that is so illegal lol. i think that'd be great in red too

 

i can do those for 75.00 in red. its actually 20" wide not led but i think it should have at least one for each inch..........

anyone can do it lights will run you for 40.00 in parts probably 45.00 but it just takes time.....about the wiring is just taping wires together but some people prefer professional install..........

nothing tricking but just breaking stuff apart which is fun..LOL
plus you want to be original about it......

 

elegancexb,
Can you give a list of all the things that are needed and where to get them? Also some detail to the install. I need to setup a project for next week end. Thanks

 

this is somethin i would do if i was bored and i had every other thing done on my wish list

 

yo elegance, PM me with the deatails on how you did it and also what the exact name for the led strip is called. also, where can i find these led strips? thanks again!!

 

a DIY writeup would be nice... please??? =D

 

ok ill will do that...........i think i have to do another one in order to take the pics and all........i got another car to do by middle of this week..........post more pics....
but for all of you guyz that want to know where to buy it (its called PEPBOYS they are really soft strips.......ill see if i find the pic of them.....

 

so how do you remove the lens from the back of the brake light?

 

I just completed this mod with red led strips, instead of removing the original light i cut the strips to fit on each side of the original. I removed the lens by grabbing the end of the strip with pliers and gently twist them to break the seal,then got a thin flathead screw driver and continued down the strip.

 

looks sickkk!!!
