Good Stuff!!! I've been working on mine for a while now. I'm using smaller leds so I'm running into funding problems buying all these LEDs.

so far everything i've been doing is on a breadboard. I need to make sure that when the tempurature starts changing that the leds will still light up

i c. well today i tried to tap them into the signals (with the bulb in and out) but either they didn't work or i just got hyper blinkers . i think i'm gonna have to get some relays and figure out what to do. i don't know what the power rating of the stock bulb is but i know that the LEDs need 12V to work. any suggestions?

hahah u ran into the biggest problems w/ LEDs. I still don't know if mine will work overtime because as your LEDS are on, they get hot. as it gets hot it requires more current to keep them on and I'm not sure how much they'll need at max. I'll let u know when I figure out all this math hahah

i hear ya but these are only gonna be the signals so heat isn't really an issue. they'll be on for maybe .5 secs at a time. for the brake lights on the other hand...
