2nd Gen Tail light BTLM + LED Retrofit

Doing the custom side marker LED's this week....hopefully I can pull off what I have planned @memario1214 might know

You jinxed me!!!! Long story short my toddler got a hold of a rear reflector and thought it would be funny to taunt my bulldog with it. Needless to say it is unusable now
SO...I'm having to improvise.

 

Subbed.

 

I'm glad I jinxed you because that looks great man! Keep up the good work! I check on your progress daily Where did you get that TRD part? I bet that would look good in chrome

 

I designed it then made it.
NO CHROME.

 

Oh, more goodies? I like

 

Been waiting for some goodies from Klearz. Just got them yesterday so I'll make some headway on these lights this weekend.

 

Phase 2; Side markers

I needed some side illumination so here is what I came up with...
I used a straight strip smoked diffuser purchased from Klearz. I had an idea of where I wanted to put the LED's, and the strip was the perfect width. then just cut to length.

First was to mark out where they are going:


Rough cut;



Painted and test fit. They flow with the factory lines..exactly what I was going for



All together. FLUSH


Close up;



With the LED's mounted behind, the diffuser makes them look like a solid plasma bar. SWEET



Next up is reassembly !

 

I can't take all the credit. Hat tip for the idea I was just the executor

 

This is the complete running light mode. Put the lens over to see how it will look. I'm debating about using the side markers as a turn signal too...hmm

These things are lookin rad.. and I don't even like the 2nd gen lights

 

Correct.

 

They look B.A.!!!!! Let us know when you start productions.

 

I'd buy eventually if it were production
