Re: LED Taillights, Diy

he guys,

I have already build a couple of these tail lights for myself.

see my sig for the end result.

here is a link to the build topic of it on HID PLANET
http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/show...or-my-Suburban

they came out really nice.

as far as LEDs....dont go for anything else then true "Philips Lumileds"...as you can read in the thread there is a lot of crap on the market and for two reasons:
- most of them can only be driven on 20mA in stead of 70 mA
- and color is wrong. Should be orange-rd for maximum output and not red. when using normal red leds a lot of the output will be lost behind the lens.

there are a coupler of guys on HIDPLANET selling them. Their price is OK and they ship fast. Even to me accross the ocean to the Netherlands.
