    Default Hard to stop farkeling!

    Save your money, DIY.
    After installing the spy- hmt trunk brake light I thought, why not the 3rd and 4th light as a DIY proyect! $10 for a roll of red led, $29 for a dual converter from custom dynamics, a little bit of patience, and boom! Job done!
    my pictures come out side ways! How come? I'll post pictures when I learn how to do it!

    Or, if you already have a sideways picture, all you need to do is rotate the picture with any photo editing app before you upload it.

    Nice-looking lights by the way. Great job.

    Itlooks like you mounted 4 strips, is this correct? Just looking at the details. Love the look of the CD HMTL but don't like the $$$$.

    Could you put a post in DIY and show the details shots? Wiring, power module mount, etc?

    Just 2 strips, the one at the top is the custom dynamics spy- hmt! Lots of money for that one
    , but the results and looks is worth it! As far as pictures for wiring, well, all the plastic has been put back! Should have taken pictures as I was doing the job, but I didn't think about it at the time! Sorry!

    Thanks, Tony - it probably will be!

    Whereabouts near LA do you live? We used to live in Thousand Oaks, and then Fullerton.
