Led Tail Lights On M35

[whitestag]

Thinking I might attempt LED tail lights. Looking to see if anyone has them on m35? As would like to see how they do it in japland. I got most of the basic stuff like led's got some board ect. Also interested in peoples opinion on best layout for the led's. Eg, parkers outline and brakes a row of two in middle. Big led's or small.

I'm thinking 5mm 8ooo lmd LED's but can get 10mm aswell that are even brighter. But there more obvious.

I like the idea of LED tail lights

Indicators too

extend them up into the plastic to complete the volvo look

[zei20l]

thats not a bad idea actually!

just the tail light and not the brake

[whitestag]

Yeah that's the plan, up into top of lights.

Hi Matthew,

Another option to vote on should be "gay,l

[bigkevracer]

Considering most people voted positive, why would you need that option?

Surely that would be on some separate control. I wouldn't know what to look at if that was on in front of me.

Haven't you worked out how your tail lights are wired up yet?

With some difficulty I got them apart and have mocked up the led's and test fit a board. Just gotta assemble it all. And test them. But work killing me ATM.

Agreed.

Having said that, there was a set on Yahoo (the year before last?) that I liked.

They had a single LED in the base of the reflector that emitted light up the reflector section so at night they sort of looked like horns.

The tail light section was 5x 10(?) LEDs for the brake lights (reminded me of the V35 sedan brake lights at night) and the indicators were a similar layout.

$1.1k was a bit steep though
