LED TAIL LIGHT CONSTRUCTION
I got the idea off a few people on maxima.org, but they had a totally different style. I wanted to do it differently, instead of the 3 or 4 horizontal rows like most people did, so I went for a diagonal column look. With the help of kzoosho and BLACKonBLACK98 I was able to do what I needed to to. Take a look and tell me what you think.
Everything but the LEDs was bought from Radioshack. I cut the boards using a chop saw, it made it real quick and easy :)
I used tape squares to represent each Super-flux LED on my broad to layout my design...

My first design (seen above) didn't match the lines of the tail light assembly too well so i had to change it. The modified pattern looks much better and fits the lines nicely.
Both Inner and Outer boards for the right side are complete.
Back of Inner tail board, looks pretty clean for my first LED job.

I attached the wires and some connectors to make the install cleaner and easier.
I have a feeling I'm gonna need to shorten those wires tho
Finally got to mount them in the assembly (only did 2 today tho)
I used some black silicone sealant to hold them in place,
soon the lenses will be on and they'll be mounted on the max :)
Tail Lights are all done for now... here's the pics
