[Euro] LED taillights & angel eyes
I have been thinking recently about having a go at converting tailights to LED myself like the ones the guys have been working on in the US. It shouldn't be too difficult with my electroincs background. The only problem I can see will be how to work on them without taking the car off the road. This led me to start thinking about trying something easier first, how about angel eyes made from white LED's? This would be less complicated as you don't have to worry about the complication of working out intensity for braking and normal tail lights. The other benefit is that would not need to be the super bright LED's needed for the tailights. This makes it a bit cheaper as well.
What do you guys think it would look like to have a ring of white LED's around the head lights as angel eyes? I assume the more there are would give the impression of a solid light rather than a ring of white dots.
The only other problem is that I have not looked into the logistics of getting into the headlight assembly or how to actually mount the LED's. Just a thought for now.
Question about LED layout
What does everyone think of the single ring of LED's for the brake/tailight in the US version? Personally I think it looks a little weird. Maybe two or three rings would look better.
Need taillight assembly to play with
Does anyone know of any wrecked Euros that have the taillight assemblies intact? This would help speed up the process. I can imagine what a new set from Honda would cost.
