Heres the video showing marker/brake function and changing to turn signals . Marker or Brake function will automatically disable when turn signal is activated . when signal logic is deactivated it will go back to whatever function it is in .The wiring can be done different ways to achieve different things or use some of our other modules including sequential .The marker/brake function is powered by our Illumenator PWM/regulator . This will greatly extend the life of the LEDs,give a cool look and keep voltage stabilized at 12v . Also built in overcurrent and overheat protection . The marker brightness(duty cycle) is adjustable via turn **** on PWM .The turn signal function is powered by our DFC module.


Also heres a example of the LED PCB's . Final one will be a little different to fit G2flips shroud .Also the modules should be able to fit inside each tail so there is no extra wiring coming out of the tails .All PNP.Leds used are not your average cheap ebay pirahna superflux . These are the exact genuine Red/orange LEDs used from the factory . Boards are resistored to 12v .Current draw on the ring is 210ma .

In the video all the little lines and dots are just the camera trying to pick up the pulses of the pwm just like trying to take a video of bugatti LED lights .Pulsing/flickering is not seen by the human eye .


Heres some pics of the LED pcb's and the modules .





The Illumenator PWM/regulator and DFC module

[/QUOTE]


Some other things while doing the wiring/modules for g2flips shrouds
  • 3 function rectangle LED area : Built in switch to toggle from full off /full on /pattern .Also can be converted to turn signal function instead of marker/brake or all 3.
  • High power LED reverse lights with heatsinking and constant current driver using luxeon rebel LEDs .
  • LED Molded Celis rod -marker function only -still in works.
  • LED sidemarker upgrade .
  • Free painted inner shroud/housing if not going with the plated g2flipscustom shrouds .


output compared to standard white led

04 coupe, would you be willing to sell just the LED PCB that will fit the shroud?


And have it plug and play as far as the factory wiring that formerly went to the inner, non-round LEDs, to this new outer ring?

It'd seem like it'd be a wiring mess w/o that and to use FLIP4's black ring holder.

It does look like that a little on the video but its not in person . Might be a combination of the video and optics on the inner ring . Ill try to take a better video .

Iv done 4 dual ring tail retros for the coupe plus mine and another spare i use for testing over the last 2 years . There are more out there then you think .The custom shroud is definitely unique though .
