LED's look nice, man.

Has anyone done an LED swap on their tail lights?

Scratch, there are one piece welded harness bars on eBay for $130 shipped.

i was going to but i didnt feel like spending around $12 per bulb to see if its worth it. id want bright LED reverse lights before tails so i can freaking see out the back without putting down my windows; the only downfall of tints

I know that, but I wanted one a bit different...payed just a bit more than that for it...I know it sounds bad, but I wanted a bar that I knew nobody else would have...

Yea true story on the harness bar. Haven't you seen my thread? lol

Why of course...lol...

Also just picked up a Turbolife FMIC...yippie...all parts for turbo have been gotten...now just when it gets out of the shop I will have to put it on...

On another note...decided to do the roof/keyhole surround in Black Mica instead of the semi flat black...

Shaving the trunk of emblems, also going to be shaving the rear valence...retrofitting on the MSP Rear Lip instead...hopefully it doesn't look retarted...

I think the guy who's name starts with a K was working on some at one point...but I don't think he ever finished. And he's definitely moved on to other things now.

I put LEDs in my lic lights the other day too, I got a compliment on them today.
As for the tails, LEDs won't be as bright as regular bulbs, i've tried it.

That is gonna be sick, i've never seen anybody do that.
Damn last I remember you were proud of N/A and now you're going turbo, awesome.

Lol...still like the N/A, and if the turbo gives me any problems, I will return to N/A, but I will have an under $1000 turbo build with the gauges/AFC/Turbolife/rest of Turbo Setup...

Also, just got a set of Kartboy shifter bushings...
 
Nice.

As for the wing thr guy said that he is waiting on his supplier to find the part. So...yea. Ill let you know.


Changed to one hella horn today. painted the guard black. Less noticeable now. still sounds about the same.

Also somewhat downgrading, getting rid of all the parts that I dont need on the car. (This is for more supercharger research...lol)

If you're gonna put in LED bulbs remember to get the load resistors. At one time I had all 6 turn signals and all the taillights/brakelight bulbs with LED's. If you don't use the load resistors your turn signals will flash fast and if you use LED's as your brake light bulbs your cruise control will not work. Took me 6 weeks to figure that one out.
 
Wow. Yeah, looks like I'll pass on the LED brake lights. Thanks for the info, guys.
 
(mswerd)

I've got LED's in my license lamps, my interior dome light and my dash lights.. LOOOVE the dash lights.

just white LEDs behind the gauges you mean? it thought of doing that but I need to get a better set up in there for more even lighting
