Evo/G35 with LED conversions (Evo's next)

Here are some quick pictures of my Evo and my father's G35. I was home this weekend to help finalize his LED makeover for the car. Interior lights, puddle lamps, glovebox, trunk, signals, clearance lights have all been converted. Most of the light housings are custom fabbed using a lot of surface-mount LEDs. These particular units have ratings of over 15,000 mcds. The one finished product you can see here are custom sidemarkers. These are heavily modified commercially available sidemarkers. Each unit houses 10 superbright LEDs and looks stock. These are the pics from a small cruise we went on.















here are the pictures and some movies of the LEDs...you can probably tell from the filenames which movies are which...there are some walkaraounds of the outside showing the converted LEDs (turn signals F/R, sidemarkers F/R, clearance lights, added sidemarkers) . and some inside shots of the dome lamp, puddle lamps, glove box and customized door reflectors. finally, there is a shot of the trunk with the custom LED bar (pre-aiming)

on with the pictures.





















and the videos, please right-click and save.

hahaha, thanks for the house compliments. i'm sure the owner would love to hear them! we were cruising a mountain road in NJ and found this dead end that overlooks NYC. my original pictures looking out from the road are crappy because the sun was shining right into the lens. when i flipped it around and shot away from NYC, the mansions were in the background.

as far as size on the bulbs, all of the boards were hand made with high-power leds. i'll be taking apart the dome light and creating an LED setup that is the exact size of the light bucket.
