They are the stock ones that cam ewith the headlights.

As soon as 2gn comes back online I will be able to mod the relay and install it, since that is the only site that has the working pictures unlike the org.

Today I modded the 04 relay and got it installed, it works just like it said., Great mod.
I installed the 5led side markers, they barely fit butt they look great.

Remember those 48 led switchback towers, well it seems like I can't use them. They work as they should when I don't have the parking lights on but when I turn them on the signal just freezes and the signal indicator on my cluster gets dim. So I'm going to check my local laws to see If I need amber turn signals in the front, if not I am going with 48 led white towers or amber if the law says so.

Thanks guys, I checked the local laws and in the US you have to have amber front turn singals, in the rear you can have red or amber. So I will be getting 60led towers in amber in the next couple weeks. And some led fogs to wrap up the lighting project, just waiting for that check to come.....

Every state sets their own laws about vehicle specifications. For example, in Ohio you can have any color turn signals you want, provided that there are no flashing red or blue lights on the front of a vehicle. They don't want any chance of anyone possibly mistaking you for a safety vehicle. Stop lights have to be red but rear turns can be any color you like, fronts as well except for red and blue.

So I'm thinking about hiding 4 leds in each of those rear speaker covers so the speakers will light up blue at night, also mounting 4 behind the front door panels to shine on the front speakers, mounting 2 behind the dash speakers. Getting the four pin leds (the bright ones) and redo my hvac panel, putting some leds in my air vents and in the driver and passenger foot wells. All the leds would be blue and the whole project would cost less than 75 bucks, inlcuding switches leds and wiring.

What do you guys think?

I also changed my mind about the leds for the front of my car, I will be buying 8 amber 194 style leds to replace the white ones in my headlights and rewire them in with my turn signals so I can replace the 3157 style stock amber bulbs to 48 or 60 led cool white towers.

I am currently in communitcation with autolumination to find out why my switchbacks aren't working as they should, We'll see what they say but I beleive even with the modded relay they aren't compatible. So I asked them If I could get one of their high load relays to test to see if they work as they should with them and if they don't to return them. We'll see... I would really like to get them to work, If i could.

I like the idea of the LED's for the speakers. Plus thats not a bad price for that project. I cant wait to see this project all finished and lite up.

Today starts the new project. My new tail lights.
I have just about everything to do this now but a multimeter ( to test leds) But I am going out shortly to buy one.
Just got my shipment from besthongkong and here are the leds..
110 20 degree 5mm
76 70 degree 5mm both red


I was not paying attention when I ordered and thought that the price was for 1 resistor not 50, so I ended up with 1000 resistors. Just incase you don't know how many that is just take a look...

If anyone wants some 560 ohms resistors plz pm me.. lol

The 04 tails I got and which came here scratched pretty bad , but nothing some clear and some labor couldn't fix.



And the led boards courtesy of lsp...
