that's how old Jedi is. Most of the parts on his car were made by people who stopped making them long ago.

 

very old and wise is this Jedi

 

i'm still waiting for you to start selling a premade RB gauge kit like the one in your car.

 

for you, I'd actually do it. Lemme know...

Speaking of which: I need to dismantle my gauge setup this weekend.

 

I'm usually down in So Cal a few times a year.. we'll have to plan an install party.

 

you're gonna make me do physical labor?!

 

even money men need to get their fingers dirty every once in awhile

 

says who???

 

says the person who counts, me

 

Didnt see this asked in the thread, and if I missed it...sorry. I had heard that when replacing bulbs with LEDs, specifically in the interior domelight location, that you lose the fading effect. True or bogus?

 

Bogus................it does change how fast they fade depending on how many locations on the same circuit you have changed.

 

yup, still fade.

 

Thanks guys...I was hoping to retain that effect. Im not well versed in the properties of LEDs vs. bulbs. What can I expect if I was to change all the fading bulbs to LEDs, with the addition of the puddle lights? Does the fade speed up or slow down? How would brightness be effected, if at all? Basically, are there any drawbacks to doing this?

 

only drawback is that you can get some flicker in LEDs unless you but a voltage regulator on the line.

 

Im aware of the fast blinking when you replace the turn signals w/o using voltage regulators. Would the slow fading ones be effected the same way? Is there any concern with the bulbs that dont blink or flash?

 

Voltage regulator?? I heard resistors stop that problemin turn signals

 

i meant resistor

the fast blinking is caused by the difference is current a LED draws then stock bulb.. so your car thinks the turn signal is burnt out when it's not. The flickering in other applications is a different issue

 

Ok, so if Im understanding you correctly, I could still have flickering with LEDs in non blinking locations....such as the side markers or position lights up front?

 

I keep finding out about this stuff late in the game, darn work/school/studying for promotions...Is this kit still available by chance?

 

replied to your e-mail.

 

yep. doesnt happen to everyone and usually means you'll need a resistor in the line. Lots of the led sites sell them. I'm currently running my parking lights and all interior lights on LED without any flicker and I'm NOT using any resistors.

 

Yep, I agree you may or may not have it and I am also one that has no noticable flicker without any resistors.
BTW..........some LED's come with the resistor already there, but most do not. Also, watch out for that third brake light if you decide to try and change that to LED, if I remember right................it is notorious for causing issues with the ABS/DCS circuit.

 

Is anyone who can install these be at the tail of the dragon this year?
If so, pm me. Am interested in paying to have these installed in my car.

Thought I'd post up some pics...

 

Some more.....
