wow talk about sweet update of pics.

also, in your original reply on page 1, the extra pics you posted of the other side complete look completely BA... if that is more close to how it looks IRL then that rocks!

Finally 100% complete.

I installed some 7440 LED bulbs for the signal light, and added load resistors. No hyperflashing, and I think it completes the look.


Testing it with that same 9V battery.


Installed in the light, still powered with the battery. The pattern of the signal light reminds me of UFO lights.


Here are some night shots to better represent how they look like on the road. Went out in the middle of the night to avoid any traffic or other cars.




And some shots to try and capture the headlight beam as well.






The only problem with taillight work, is that I never see the results on the road. The headlights are where you'll be reminded of the work everytime.



Look in my sig if you're wondering about the headlights. They're obviously not stock.

Unfortunately I don't have any current plans to do this for others. I estimate that this project would have taken 5 straight working days of 10 hour days to complete. As such it took me about 2 months working here and there.

Thanks for all the feedback. I'll try and get daytime shots and pics of the signals in the near future.
