 Another Light Mod (Knight Rider)
I finished another light mod. Bought a knight rider led strip then took it apart and modified it to work on the front of the spyder. It came out pretty cool looking I think.

I bought the strip from Advanced Automotive Concepts. I had to customize it from what they sent. The strip comes with a hard plastic cover over the board and they filled it with some water proofing. I had to remove the hard plastic and the water proofing with a heat gun which damaged the leds. So I attached new leds to the Lower panel by drilling a hole in the plastic and inserting them into that then wiring the new leds to where the old leds where at on the circuit board. Sounds like a lot but it was fun making it work.

Well you certainly did a great job. It looks awesome on the video and I would bet that it looks even better in real life.

Thanks for the offer, I may take you up on this, anyway would be nice to meet up at Americade.
I go every year but not for the whole week, normally the Friday till Sunday. Too many events over the summer not enough vacation time is I have to pick and choose.

I can prep the lights up and it will only take like 15 minutes to install. Just let me know if you want them and I will order the parts. I'm thinking we will be up there Wednesday through Saturday. I'm the same way with vacation days. I'm going to florida for a week then canada for a week next year. So it doesnt leave many days. But I love getting together with the new york guys.
