Thank you. I was thinking of maybe getting smaller LEDs and have it spell out COBALT, COBALTSS, SS/SC, or COBALTSS.net

 

I saw on this site someone selling led strips, like 3", 6" 9" and so on.

 

I just bought the LED brake light from Modern Performance Nitehawk LED Third brake light conversion kit. It cost 28.91 with shipping. Its just the board and some sticky tape.

 

ya awesome 3rd brake light there

 

I also bought the Modern Performance LED light strip, but I just installed the Impala light strip in its place. I find the Impala light to be way brighter, and more easily seen during the day. Boy am I glad I found a wrecked Impala at my local junkyard. They let me have the light board for a few bucks since I bought a bunch of other stuff that day.

Here's what my back end looks like now:

 

I installed my led tail light. Check it out.

 

You can go to most high end sign shops and they will make up led boards for you.

 

I can't beleive this thread is still going on. BTW, Curtis that I mentioned in my original write-up is Wyoming_Bass on page 2 of this thread.

 

does anyone have a pic of one with all the LED options available in the back?

 

I have installed my led todays (impala's LED) here are some pic and there is a video include if you want to see it lol

before

during


as you can see i didnt took all the liner because i didnt need to. I even use it as a table lol



even off you can see the leds


And yeah i know it looks ugly but im waiting my resistor to put my led taillights lol

check it... just got mine in the mail today and its awesome, took all of 20 mins to install the connector that came included DID NOT hook directly to my factory harness so some line taps and a little whire did the trick.

im sure this is alot cheaper than buying that brake light at the dealer.

 

It's crooked... Pretty obvious....too

 

Just did my impala LED install today and preserved both connectors. They work great and it looks awesome.

 

i did mine and it looks good. just dont touch the wires together so you dont blow your stop fuse.

 

I just installed the brake light yesterday. * Much thanks to the O.P. for his help*
The proper part # for the light is 10319332
So this is the LED 3rd brake light with the IPCW Bermuda Black tail lights



I'll try and get a better picture when its light out, the camera does not like the LED's when its dark

 

damn thats pretty bright. car looks nice too man

 

Thank you

The only problem I think might arise is the "bass" factor.
I'm worried about my subs shaking it loose.
I think I have a solution
The Impala light comes with a grey piece that would be equal to our crome housing. If you look at the pics of the blue balt on the prev. page its sitting infront of the case of water in one of the pics.
This piece has clips that hold the LED board in place. Since I don't want to hot glue gun the LED board down and I don't see the 2 way tape standing the test of time, I was going to use the dremel and cut just the insert part of the impala piece out and glue it into my crome housing the just clip the LED board in. IOn theory it should work but like any other DIY mod there is a 50/50 chance so...
I let you if it works

 

Why would it be called a CMD light and not a LED?

 

I can't belive I never posted finished pics of our LED conversion...

 

hey man is it just a board with the leds on it? the glue i used on mine is called e6000. i bought it at hobby lobby and its held up pretty well. The double sided tape fell off, the CA glue (basiclly thicker hardcore superglue) broke as well since its so brittle but the e6000 is a little more flexable and has done me well. id see if you could find it

damn that actually looks pretty badass. how all did you do the inner leds? half and half or different resistors

 

one of the members here did it, and I am pretty sure it is a variable resistor and a bypass for the brakes/turn signals for either side. The LEDs on the inners were installed by him too. Turned out great. The Outside ones are from Ebay.

 

damn thats what i thought... so ur gonna sell em to me right?

no idea what i even ment by that actually. maybe there was a typo before? there are diffrent types of leds like SMT (i mentioned that earlier) but no idea what cmd even means
