DIY: Easy&Cheap LED Side marker mode...:)
I was bored..So i made LED side marker for people who don't know how to play with LED like me..
It took me about 1hour...only because I did not have tools..
If I had tools It would take less than 1 hour...
Anyways...Here are some pictures...Pictures will tell you almost everything..
Its Easy...
Materials needed:
-6 LED Bar Set from superbrightleds.com
http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...i?product=BARS
-Pair of Side marker
-Anything to cut back of the side marker housing
-LED Holder(I used one of my burned 194 LED)
[Edit]
ignore led holder part...
you can use anything...there are heated shrink wire connector..or wire connector that secure water...be creative
my led holder don't secure water so its not a good idea...
-silicone
Total cost-$10~20
-Silver Marker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
since you can see through the housing..led bar doesn't match the color..
so I used silver marker to match the color looks much better
Final Product..........
Add silicone to the backside of the housing.
Result.........
Its much brighter than single 194 led.....I like it
I still have to paint LED Bar silver and add silicone sealant to the backside of the housing.
Sorry for short write up..
