Lookin' good Dan! Keep up the good work

[Wacky Dee]

any chance you can set them up like the nismo gt leds instead of just circle ?

Anything is possible But no, the cost would balloon out if I start getting additions made to the current design. As it would require more template cutting and hand soldering by the manufacturer.

Oh Dan, will you be doing the indicators also in the tail lights?

[666DAN]

Probably just a drop in bulb in there, I can now get some fairly good output T20's

[LolWhut]

oh wow looking good dan!

are these tail light going to come with the whole housing or we have to take it apart and fit the new stuff in the original housing?

cant wait!

Unfortunately not with the housing, unless I can start picking them up cheaply. Just waiting on some quotes for some laser cut mounts, but the DIY should be fairly stress free. Taking the lenses out just involves putting them in the oven at 80c and then popping them out quickly with a screwdriver.

Some progress-

very nice dan, would love to see some night shots

[666DAN]

Will get some tonight, only just bolted them in today haha

[666DAN]

OK here are some pictures, I apologise for the random angle they’re taken from (I don’t have a tripod) some are with my Pentax, the others with the phone. The phone produces the deeper red which is truer to the actual colour. Either way they look really good in person

[wisey18]

Shit yeh!

How much are we looking at at the moment?

OK this is still highly dependant on the DIY-ness of the kit. As it currently is, it's not do-able as the supplied PCB's for the LEDs were too fragile. A good day of driving managed to crack a rail supply power to the LEDs so not happy jan.

I've just sent them the diagrams for the new boards to be remade (which are as tough as old boots)

Still hoping for ~$300 a kit, closer to $500 if I supply the tail lights as well. Somewhere in the middle is if I do the install for you.

[dori34]

oh hell yeah!

let me know when they are ready. car is in the workshop for the next 5-7weeks so i can send my lights to you for you to fit

[666DAN]

Too easy mate, the new boards will arrive with me on the 25th June and be ready to go

Already had lots of comments from people out and about (I've explained the current 'broken' LEDs haha) they like the look with a more continuous ring.

[jrm]

My only comment based on the latest set of pics is that the inner ring looks 'fuller' than the outer ring, and whether a double-ring in the outer set would fix this up. A bit late now obviously though

Yeah the pictures don't do it justice, I wish I could be driving behind my car all the time, at night it's mesmorizing

[jrm]

ahh you're a funny man
