Default LED Retrofit with aftermarket tails...

Been working on my halfassed aftermartket tails... ripped them apart and am in the process of painting them to match my Black Teg... and am also doing an LED Retrofit.

I just got the LED's yesterday and put the circuit togeather to see how it is... they are PLENTY bright, head on they are damn near blinding []

Only problem is, i dont know if I like them better with the LED's right on the Lens... or off a few inches to give it more of a whole halo look... what do you all think?

Tail brightness


Brake Brightness


Tail


Brake


Leds ON the Lens


Leds off a few inches (more of a halo effect in real life)


Thoughts?

I think what he meant was, he's being a ricer because it's not OEM.

Who gives a **** anyway.
DirtyBirdJR is a goober.

Back to LED tails...
Grade A for effort
I love DIYs.
I still want to see the final product.

I saw another guy do this, He took LED taillights from a semi truck and installed them
into his factory taillights, when normal they look normal, but under braking It's Much much more brighter,


Q: How Is installing LED's behind the factory lens ricer?
God this ricer thing is getting out of hand.

This retrofit is much more function more than fashion.
