These are set number 3, the previous sets weren't bright enough in the sun. It took a lot of time to make 9 circuit boards, modify the rear housings, make new front housings and change the hazzard switch. Not shown in the movie is the brake light action which is instant on with no sweep and the parking lights where all 400 leds are lit with reduced output. The camera made the rear light look orange but it is pure red. Thanks go to my son Joel for posting the movie that had to be cut way down to fit. In person the sweep is smoother and very attention getting. All the lenses except the headlights have been sanded and polished to remove the DOT approved castings. Yellow leds were chosen for the fronts but they could have been blue, purple, white, etc. Do I plan to make more systems? No, other projects need attention, a transmission cooler needs plumbing now. Thanks for the positive feedback, signing off til Monday.
