My new tail light mod - LED's

Did this one all myself, bought 2 LED lights at Wally World, some epoxy and a little cutting up of the factory lights but I think they turned out great! Now Im going to get another set of red upper lights and take out the backup lights and do the same treatment, also I need some load resistors or a electronic flasher, the blinkers are flashing real fast now......

That's a different yet effective way to do it.

You can buy a resistor from superbrightleds.com that will take care of that speed blink.

Yes I know about the aftermarket LED lights, the ones that sell for over $300, this mod that I did cost me $38 so far and a couple hours of time. Plus it's different, not just another set of aftermarket lights...

To each their own. I just wouldn't have gone to that length. Regardless it looks good.
