i've been on there for a while and been reading up some basic info but it's just that first step that's so hard. if I knew someone who has experience with this, I'm sure I could more easily get into this.

that and I need time

Unless JnC has 2 pairs of mint M45's, this retro isn't happening. Oh well, LS430 is better anyway right?

To add my personal touch to the retrofit here is an idea, a custom parking marker/indicator?? What do you guys think, 12 LEDs installed in the GS bezel. The circuitry would be hidden underneath the bezel where as only the illuminating heads would pop out from the bezel.

A quick wire up that I did









These suckers are bright .
How i would i get my hands on those LEDS but in different colors? would you teach me how to develop LED mainboards? i have some projects i want to mess around with.


Thanks

You need to check out www.hidplanet.com/forums (LED section) for all your LED info. I picked up the basics from there before doing this and trust me I am a complete novice when it comes to LEDs.

Well I'll see how the search for a set of LS goes.. I was stupid enough to sell the single and the pair I had last month
