Cool cool...I may end up ordering a few different colors and seeing which I like the best before ordering a whole bunch. I liked the thread deedub posted btw was funny as hell...lol

 

 

 

been following your thread since it started, and i am amazed at how great a job you've done. i considered custom led boards for my side markers once upon a time, never thought of the tail light, and although i am good with a soldering iron and the simple circuitry i decided i dont have the fab skills(read "*****") to do the side markers.... much less tail light!

you have by far the most unique custom and best looking lighting i have seen yet

 

Thanks for your compliments. The side markers were pretty easy. I knocked them out in one night.

I posted some more pictures here:

wow, those look great. awesome job.

 

that lookz realllyyy nice.. i wana do that to my rx8 badlyyy.. how much did it cost you? and r u willing to make more and sell them?

 

hey rotary rasp, have you seen my led conversion yet?

 

So how'd you change the lights in the center console and gauges?

 

lol, very carefully

 

Lurch,

The blue led's look great but you need to add the Pettit radio ****

 

lurch's led interior conversion looks sweet! i would really like to change those orangish-red lights on the headunit to some dark red ones some day.

 

not diggin' the new lights lurch.
What's with the 3 really bright ones in the last pic?

 

those are where the needles rotate on

 

wow that is cool! i personally like the stock color scheme but this is nice too and original

 

An LED tail light would be sweet.

 

yes, LED tail lights would be sweet.

 

Lurch, your dash looks amazing. Care to tell how you did it?

 

I like the radio console.

 

its easy. for the dash, you need a bunch of plcc leds in the appropriate color, take the dash apart. replace the leds that you want to change the color of, reassemble.

 

Where did you purchase your plcc leds from?

 

ordered them from digikey. hope your soldering skills are up to the challenge. they are quite tiny

 

 

that looks real good.
