I am considering making a few more sets, however, nothing is for sure yet. It depends a lot on member interest.


I'll take some day shots when I get off work.

 

WOW... nice job Rasp! I agree, the 8 should have come stock this way!

 

If you would consider doing them in a chrome finish I would paypal you right now .

Off topic: what color temp headlights are you running now? Also what brand bulb are you using? I'm thinking of getting some 6000K bulbs, but am undecided on whether I want to drop $200 on Philips or take my chances with a cheaper brand.

EDIT: I saw in your sig that the headlights are 6000K, they look perfect. Still wondering what brand you are running though and if you've had any problems with them.

 

holy smokes Rodger, that looks freaking HAWT! Can't wait to see them in person...

 

I'm running 5000k (ebay) for the fogs and some Philips DL35's for the head lights.

I used to have 6000k. For some reason I can't change my sig.

It would be very easy to use another color instaed of black. Just a matter buying the formica or painting it. I'm pretty sure you can already buy chrome formica.

 

howcome you went with a black backing for the tails and 3rd brake, instead of painting them red, or even some red foil finish?

 

I dunno. Honestly, you can't even tell unless you're six inches away. You'll see when I post some day shots.

 

if you were to make a few more sets, would you be selling the whole light assembly or just the boards for us to install?

 

the passenger side light has they lock assembly in it right? is that interchangeable between lights?

 

there is no lock on his paasenger side...

 

Do the rear turn signals, and reverse lights as well. Hell do a full LED conversion, interior lights and all.

I think an interesting idea would be a plate full of LEDs feeding a bundle of fiber optic cables, each end gathering light from a bulb then meeting up to form a tight bundle, with a ligthyl fogged piece of glass behind the clear exterior glass. I think it'd look awesome. The LED reaction time, without the "Dot" look. Just a really bright solid red circle. Only problem is it'd take up some trunk space to have room for all of that.

 

I installed a camera where my key was. Either way, it's just a hole in the tail light. The key unit is mounted on the car so no special modification was required to the tail lights.

 

I dont know, I don't have any more sets of tail lights at the moment. I'd have to do an ebay hunt first.

I do have plenty of leds.....

The two circuit boards are identical.

Do you think people would be interested in buying just the completed circuit board?

 

Nice conversion, very clean!

 

Well, that is an interesting thought. I think the new bmw 6 series does something like that.

As for the rest of the car? I've already completed the interior, license plate, trunk light, and glove box light. As a matter of fact, the only thing left is the reverse lights and turn signals.

 

Holy smokes thats hott! Whats the turn around time to complete a pair of tail lights?

 

Sounds crazy, but you should try & sell a few sets.. Think I would grab at em.. Also, sell a completed set.. Like a bag o bulbs for the interior, so people could just order an interior set in blue.. which is what Id like to do..

 

Looks very clean!!

I'd be all over them if you were to sell a set. i would want the whole light assembly just to make it easier of a swap.

If you sell the boards and the leds what would be the cost? Install instructions included?

 

I think I need to contact a mod before I say anything about prices.

 

looks real sharp! are you gonna convert the rear signal lights and reverse lights to LED's as well?

 

I'm loving the conversion. Looks pretty tight. Not to hi-jack your thread, but what kinda camera are you using?

It is my buddy's Nikon D200

 

Fantastic shots and conversion, absolutely love it... if you ever sell the circuit board set, will it be possible to include oversea... i.e. Malaysia? ;-)

 

wow the d200..thats sick!!!

 

After you contact a mod let me know. I'm first on the list.
