LED tail light conversion....
LED tail light conversion....
sooo...just finished up my s13 tail lights. i just stuck em on the car, ill have to get a pic of them installed. but i have some pics of them as i peiced em together. i bought a set at a time, learned the hard way and messed up alot by heating, cracking, and warping. got it down pretty good now....
got a 100 pack of red and amber LEDs with resistors, marked and drilled that clear plate behinf the lenses.
landed and soldered em up
ran a line inside the third tail also
i used a flat black to mist the lenses to get the tint look...and right after i cleared them the flat blended into the clear so it looks actually tinted....its not just like a bunch of lil black spots to make look dark.

damn dude looks real nice! so how is the turn signal gunna work... like leave the full circles on like in the picture but then the bottom halfs will blink when on signal?
my friend was just talking about this the other day. he said he saw it on a coupe a while back. Hes got a FX35 and was thinking about drilling into the headlights and putting LEDs across the bottom like what you see on Audi's.
looks good
