A long time ago (oktober 2013) I started to try something different with my kouki tails. Because kouki tails are not so special anymore tongue.gif
I love the audi tail lights with the ring outside

So I started to play a little

And then I started.The first was ready last year, butt because my dad went to the hospital and building a gardenhouse, i had no time. So on 2 januari I started with the second tail light, and here is the result.

There are 170 leds and 170 resistors in 2 units. Building time 1 unit, 11 hours tongue.gif:P:P












The leds and resistors are sealed with silicon (A LOT of SILICON tongue.gif) I only have to repair 1 led in the right unit. Tonight 1 make some nice pics in the dark
Its only the normal running light, the brake light is the Original bulb, because i dont want to kill the leds with the different powers.

And the next project started yesterday, LED indicators tongue.gif






So enough porn this weekend tongue.gif

@ mgnt232, its lamborghini orange. There are 2 types, with a white underground and a orange underground. I wanted a bright effect, so it is the white underground. Indeed it's a lot of work, about 10-12 hours each unit. I tought about a smiley to but its "to happy" on a car hahaha. Create a cross or something. My first idea was the YYY in the lamborghini aventador tails.

Thanx Malpaso

@rave2n: can you explain that, i dont get it haha

Lol nothing crazy, I just like the eye liner bright white ones vs. a outline of red LEDs. Either way its excellent work, just a color and style preference.

That is actually quite cool. Does it hyperflash with the led sidemarkers though? Or did you keep factory bulb hooked up?
