door logo led projector
Awhile ago I saw a Lincoln with something like this from the factory, I wanted it for my 67 C10 long stepper. I found them on ebay 15 for two, 25 for 4. I bought the set of 4, two for my 67, two for my 08 Colorado.

Re: door logo led projector
I didn't feel like drilling and tapping my a pillar, so I removed a door bumper and installed a door jamb switch in the hole. the remainder of the install was fairly simple, so i'll skip the specifics and say to use a 3/4" drill bit to drill a hole in the bottom of the door, and a smaller bit, (I used 1/4") to drill holes in the door and cab to run your wires.

Re: door logo led projector
I imagine you had to purchase the door jam switch yourself. I did not see it in the kit on ebay. I like the idea of this. Adds a modern touch to the truck.

I'm going to tie them into the switch already in the truck.

Re: door logo led projector
I almost bought some of these but was worried they would look blurry on the ground. Your pics look really nice.

Re: door logo led projector
Yeah. There just the switches that come on trucks from like 68 to 79 (the ones that have a single female bullet connector, not a double male blade), but dont quote me on the exact years. I just went to napa and asked for switches from a 76 and then bought a 3/8-24 fine thread nut to tighten the switch in place. Switches like $5 each but you should be able to get them online cheaper.

Re: door logo led projector
I'm interested in doing these, but I keep reading the logos go blurry and disappear in about a month.

I bought a set last night. Going to try them out at different places and see how they look before mounting them.
