So a little while back I was trying to do something a lil different to my taillights that would not permanently damage the lights. I came up with using an LED strip in red to light up the reflector like some of the newer high end cars. Its kinda hard to see the recflector here cause I used nghtshades on them but you get the idea. so I took the handy little dremel and cut out a 3/8" stip out of the back plastic I was able to do a test fit on the reflector itself but it was too dark and my phone wouldnt take the pic soooo..... Ill have to update again as soon as I can work on it again...

I probalbly wont have time to continue working on this until next weekend but I got a pic with the lights on it so you get a better idea. Im thinking of adding more LED's to the outer ends so it will be more visible from the side.

Rain got me bored so I finally finished this little project last week. Looks pretty cool. I almost didnt finish it because I wasnt sure I liked the look. Anywho, I have pics but my computer is off getting fixed so I cant put them up right now. Soon I hope....

heres a view of the initial cut with the light strips installed. I used some hot glue to keep them in place and seal it in. And a couple of night shots... One thing I noticed after I was done is that one of them is longer than the other. They came this way which is why I didnt notice it till it was too late. looks good for a $20 mod though...

looks great, I'm working on the lighted phoenix gig on the center panel, so far I just found a center panel and painted it, ordered some lexan, and a circuit board, and I havent done squat for over a year LOL.
