my Attempt at making LED Tail lights for my evo IX

Hi guys,

I knew there where no LED tail lights made for our VIII's or IX's so i decided to make my own. So far i have completed 1 tail light and want to see what you guys thought of it. I will do a full write up when i start making the second one. Here is a short video of what the tail light looks like.

looks good man. you know what would be cool. if you could get the led's to start from the inside and work their war out. like if you have your right blinker on, it would start from the inside closes to the trunk, then start lighting up to the right. and repeat itself once it reaches the last led on the right.

sort of like construction signs you know?

any of that make sense?

Ive seen that done on other cars and I think that would be badass.

LED tails look good. If you can make them on a regular basis, you could have a nice little side job making those for people

ok well found a bunch of mustangs with them. :/

i hate mustangs

but anyways they are sequential tail tights? ill look around for kits. i might have to buy one of those kits and make it work for the blinkers instead of the tail lights.
