im sorry im not hateing on you im just trying to correct your term of skyline. your set up is more like a corvette. like shown in this thread.

as opposed to a Nissan Skyline's taillight set up. like mine is. on the R-34 skyline the turnsignal is located in the center of the middle lenses. that also have the out side ring lit in red for park lamps. and i can get prof of this to. because nissan skyline R-34 is my dream car i know all about them.

 

Nice work Jefferyss. I want to do the same thing. Just a little advise for people who are gong to attempt this and for jeffery in case you want to do your tail lights, put the tail lights in the oven to take them apart. It works just like it does for the headlights when people want to paint them. Just set it on the lowest temperature and take them out every 5 - 10 minutes or so to pry them apart. It will work cause that is what I did with my tail lights when I retrofitted them. Again you did a really nice job with these!

 

thanks man , and thanks for the advise.i'm going to wait till it's a little nicer out to pull off my rear bumper to do any further mods to the lights -30 here today lol . stuff will break !

 

does it really matter that much? his taillights are different than yours he's just calling them the same thing. who cares whether the idea came from a skyline, corvette, or even a ******' beetle, it looks good thats what matters.

 

I'm pretty sure us Canadians can buy them at Princess Auto for $10 each.
In the US, I'm not quite sure... you can build them out of lose LED's, but you'll have to solder each one...

 

I looked around last night and found that oznium.com has 9.5" flexible led strips.

 

can you get more of these strips and send them to me? I can't find them anywhere.

 

oznium.com has a great selection of lights - its where i got mine for interior work. they also make ones that you can cut to length (within like 3 inches)

jefferyss - what is the length you used? i could take my tails apart to find out... but i'm just curious (and in the middle of the ocean and can't get to my balt).

 

I found next weekends project!!!! I love you, will you marry me!!!

 

the l.e.d.s are 9 inch in length. thats all i could find and for what i wanted . they turned out pretty good i think lol

 

thanks! just what i was looking for. I think they turned out great!

 

Sweet idea i will definatesly use this on my car. thanx.

 

I like em except for that empty void on the bottom. Can't you find any LED's that are the right size? i mean its an AWESOME idea that seems like it needs to be tweeked a little.

 

BUMP..............tail lights look great

 

huh..... ive had this forever and have posted about it.... even as featured car.


Except i made them halos and not leds:

yours looks good too though. probably better then myne so props!

 

nice i like..time to find some l.e.d strips..you ever though of selling lights like that..im pretty sure ppl would buy them..i know i would

 

i could make em , but then they would have to wire them in themselves lol

 

lol...hmm i wouldn't mind wiring them in myself..how much would you charge..lol and how long would it take to complete and shipp?

Holy Originality batman! Nice job!

just as a side note. the tail lights that IPCW sells have leds in the inner lights.

 

ok i know i dissed you before but i have to say good job i attemped it with some neon wire and it came out dim. where did you get your led strip from?

 

You can get some here, BlackLSCoupe.
