    7/7/07 Led Taillight Modifations

    Here is the deal. I am looking into producing led tail lights for our 3geez. I will be using super flux leds with super flux led circuit boards. These will be clean as hell. I am looking for someone to donate a set of sedan tail lights. I can help with shipping if need be. I plan on purchasing myself a new set of hatchback tail lights and begin working on them asap. I have superflux leds on the way and will begin tinkering with them as soon as they arrive. If you can help me out or want to put your input in, feel free!

    Damn that would look HOT, IMO they'd look awesome on corner/parking lights.

    Sorry, can't donate any

    This is just a friendly critique, but dont you think it would look much better with a lot more (like 2X or 3X more) LEDs that are closer together?

    I'll donate some 2g tails, then pay for the cost of the materials and shipping...

    How much might that be?



    Of course, this assumes you can tell the difference between the tail lights and the brake lights... that's often the problem I have had with LED tail lights.

    Re: 7/7/07 Led Taillight Modifations

    Right now, I'm guessing the "parts" will run around $100-$150 for a full set of tail lights. For you people that want them, plan on over $200 for a full set. I've spent time looking around and pondering them. Super flux led's will provide 5x the light regular leds emit. The kit will be for finished circuit boards. You will have to mount them in your tail lights. I'll keep you guys updated.

    There will be alot of leds, so $200 is just a guestimate too.
