Added UV LED's to front Pk. Lights What ya think?
 
I added the UV (ultra violet) LED's to the front parking lights. The picture doesn't do it justice. They are not as bright as they look here. They are also more of a "black light" purple color too. Just seeing what ya'll think.

Get his IP. Arrest him. Get the Cops crew to come and see. Wow cop huh? What kind of 'coppy' stuff do you do? Traffic? or some other stuff.

Does this mean that if I'm ever in Mckinney I won't get pulled over for not having a front plate??:D How seriously do y'all enforce that "trivial" law anyway?

xenomorph 05-26-2004 08:30 AM

I have never written a citation for it, but I can't speak for other officers. DPS... now I've been stopped by them for no front LP. I really don't see any of our guys writing a ticket for just that, but it could happen.

mikeb 05-26-2004 06:28 PM

I don't think they match the other lights in the front

Turbo_neon 05-26-2004 08:05 PM

i got a ticket for these! but i just took them out and drove to the police station and the dropped the ticket $196 in South Carolina!

I put 4Led lights in my clear sidemarkers, I think they look pretty cool. The police told me as long as it wasn't blue or red no problem.
I might replace them with white and put them in the doors, lately they've been catching speeders with helicopters, with black lights on you're pretty easy to pick out.

LOL :D

The problem with the UV lighting is it looks bluish and blue lighting on any vehicle that is not an emergency unit is illegal. I have hyper white LEDs in mine and they do have a very slight blue tint but, not enough to cause attention. I thought about using white in the clear side markers but there is that legallity issue again, they must be yellow so I used amber LEDs in those.

UV lighting is cool, but, it needs to stay out of the lamps used for lighting the exterior of the RX-8.

Red and purple don't go. Ok on a black, yellow, or white; maybe titanium.

mikeb 05-28-2004 07:19 PM

I changed my fog h11 bulbs to nokya white

SikRedRX-8 05-29-2004 10:26 AM

Do you have a pic MikeB? I would love to change the fog light bulb to at least kinda match the headlights. Also what bulb did you use Xenomorph, and where did you get it. I might do this.

rx-81688 05-29-2004 12:53 PM

i got mine from autozone like 2 month ago, but now it change color, it's green now

SikRedRX-8 05-29-2004 12:56 PM

^^^what is the bulb number? And are they just blue LED's? any brand or what? Thanks

xenomorph 05-30-2004 01:00 PM

Blub #
 
The bulb number is 194. They are Clear Focused Ultra Violet LED's. They have 4 LED's in the housing.
I got them at http://autolumination.com/194.htm

scroll down towards the bottom and its last LED bulb selection.
When you install them, make sure you turn your lights on before you put them back in. They are directional so if you plug them in backwards, they won't work. Just trial and error.
