yup, thats just the signals. i already have a schematic for the constant/brake light but i gotta get a few things first. i was looking at the DeVille today and it has a signal/brake light and then it has a strip for the constant light which i like. anyhow, i'm happy :thumbup:

i was thinking about going into a small limited time business doin this (cause i have limited supplies) but i don't know how much to charge. plus i need more proffesional looking materials to finish it off with heheh. right now i still need to solder the wires so it'll stay forever, figure out what to put behind and around to to give it a cleaner look, get some "real" wires to hook them up besides the bootleg clear speaker wires that i use now (which are doing a very good job), and a few little things. i could prolly only make about 4 more anyhow. but none-the-less i am VERY satisfied with it. it's a really simple mod to do looking back on it but you just have to have enough LEDs to mess up and learn how to deal with them. And it's tedious (sp?) as hell . i would post a How-To but you would have to have all the materials to know what im talkin about. i also don't know how the other gens are with wireing and stuff so thats another issue. looking forward, as soon as i get a few relays and resistors, i can start on the brake lights . this should be alot harder than just the signal hehhee. thanks agian for all your help guys :thumbup:

i have a way where you use 2 relays, one for the constant light and another for the brake light. if that doesn't work, i'll try that one hehhe. thanks.

Those lights are really awesome! I never seen those!!!
VERY UNUSUAL!!! BUT THEY KICK A**!

wait, what did you put the leds on? just some plastic or like PCB? and what kind of LEDs did you use? the "super bright ones?" and how the hell did you get them so straight??
