Hey all.

As I am awaiting my garnish from an ebay seller $29 delivered ( not bad )

I was deciding on what i wanted to light up I.E. just under brakes or parker/brakes or reverse and decided that i wanted it to light up

under brakes and reverse so im heading out 2moro to get all the parts and hopefully my garnish arrives and with any luck my plan will work

but if it doesnt than its back to the drawing board ( and you guys will get free " dont do this or your break something advice ").

ill take heaps of pics of the curcuit board and put up a little tutorial on how to achieve a brake reverse system.

this should look really good.

1 question though..

My car is already black do you think this will suffice in stopping the light coming through or should I do a few coats of colour to be sure??

Just my 2 cents worth...

Cheers

I got one off mlt15e which he provided after a few weeks but the panel it was on was rough under the paint in certain parts which i consider quite an eye sore, especially if any light reflects or glares off the parts. That was the end of 2007. Since then its been broken promise after broken promise but for the most part he is just non responsive and refuses to refund. $350 or whatever it was wasted!!!

mlt15e is you read this come on man you seemed like a nice guy, do the right thing, replace it or refund. Ive never even hooked it up to the car and its been over 6 months!!!!!!!

well i finally recieved my series 1 garnish after the other one f'd up with the paint. made the circuitry about 3 years ago and is still not in my car.

it may sound like a stupid question but what is the paint called that is on your car, and will this paint stick to an acrylic base paint. As i was going to get a spray painter to do this, this time, as the other one wasn't the right colour. But as it is plastic you need a plastic adheaser right? then i was going to mask up the letters and paint it black (acrlyic) and leave it masked up ready for proper white spray QM1. Didn't want to give the masking job to them as it may stuff up cuz you really need a sharp stanley and bit of patience to cut around the letters.

Will this work? an info would be great as i did plan to have this on my car about 3 years ago and has still not happened.
