    Or place the LEDs so when they light up it spells out 3geez.

    3geez would be pretty hard, plus I don't know if Marc would let me.

    It that just the board or is that how it looks through the diffuser? Just curious cause the row doesn't look quite straight. Figured with the diffuser it might not matter?

    Re: L.E.D. 3rd Brakelight.

    they can be adjusted Im sure, as they are just attached with thin wire legs, so final adjustments would be easy to line them all up. Looks good, but I'd add another row down the middle.

    Illegal, blue is designated for emergency vehicles only.

    Blue Dots are illegal too.

    I need to see this on a car first, but I'm interested because I have pretty dark tint, and this might shine through a lot better. and no we don't want any "H logogs"??!?!? CAH

    They are a little crooked. I whipped through this one quickly. It still took me 1.5 hours to make.

    Re: L.E.D. 3rd Brakelight.

    so how much you wanna charge for an H? or one in general? also i think if we found someone to make some plastic covers with cutouts for like the honda logo then you could just pop them in the cutout to line them up. it would be cool but for now i think three rows and or an h would be tight.

    Re: L.E.D. 3rd Brakelight.

    Hey, have you thought about using fiber optic strands to spread the light? I was looking at that plate, and thinking all those little holes would be PERFECT for small FiOp bundles that you could run to a small cluster of LEDs. You could bundle them up, make a small cluster of LEDs that butt up to the end of the cables, use some clear resin to make a solid connection between the lights and the cabling in order to diffuse the light evenly, and heat shrink over the whole thing leaving just your input wires showing.....

    R u trying to kill me. do you know how much work and time it would take. Maybe I'll make "me" one.

    On a good note, I just made these turn signal harnesses with a built in Smoked sidemarker turn signal! These were Messys but he hasn't shown interest so here they are for sale.... Comes with 3 feet of wire for the sidemarkers. Led in sidemarkers is orange and the others are bright white.
