I upgraded my taillights to LED's over the holiday also.

There is A LOT of difference in the brightness.

Pics arent the greatest because it was too cold to get out of the garage...

he man! they look superbright. I wanna know: hows the difference between normal tail light and brake or turn signal?

my experience with LED in taillights so far is that there is allmost no difference in brightness.

hows yours?

JWall · 01-02-2013, 01:43 PM

There is a noticable difference in the taillights & brake lights.

I will try to get a picture of the difference soon.

hey thanks man! video would be better, because on most camera the settings are adjusted when the brightness in- or decreases.

Sweet ! I asked for a 20x20 spot but i didnt get any response from them so i guess i wont be getting that...oh well same me the money and time of making a display !

JWall · 01-02-2013, 05:30 PM

You may still get it... when you receive your acceptance letter it will tell you if you got a 20x20 or not. It still may be a while before you receive your letter back from them.

**67cheby** · 01-02-2013, 05:33 PM

Hmmmmm ok well then I guess we will just see, thanks for info

kikkegek · 01-06-2013, 05:15 PM

thanks man! Video looks great. funny though, because normally without an electronic flasher they should flash superfast, because there is no more "load", because of the low wattage.

where did you get these? They have a great difference in brightness between functions...

chicksdigit · 01-06-2013, 05:21 PM

Looks great man!

Looking good. I think I see a dirty spot you missed! I will be sure and point it out to the judges at Starbird. Just want to make sure all the other trucks in your class have a chance to win a plastic trophy! Keep up the good work and let me know if you need some help tomorrow.
