97-99 ONLY LED tail boards
#121
alright guys. who has wired these in? it looks like there's two red leads with diodes Im assuming, and a black/red. which is positive? and where do the two reds leads go? How did you guys secure the boards in place? also how did you secure the pmw board in place so its accessible for adjustments . I pm Kevlo but he doesn't get back in time I know he's busy though. Anyhow I want to get these in this weekend so feel free to chime in. Wizard where are you?

"You will have to adjust the dim brightness on the boards so they all match. To wire them up, you need to do the diode w/o the wire to the "clearence" light wire and the diode with the to the brake wire(red wire w/ green stripe)."
When KEVLO did my first set of LED tails, he used a hot glue gun to secure them. I plan on doing the same thing when I install these new ones in my tails for my 98 Max.
As for securing the pmw board, I still haven't figured out what I'm going to do; and I can't remember what I did on my 99 tails. Doh! Hope that helps somewhat.

Here's what KEVLO emailed me about installation.

you stated in your first post that these are updated from the first ones that you ran. what has been updated in these?
Also, will I need to wire in any resistors or just tap into my stock harness?

so lets say i was to install one of these,
and i signal left or right, what will it do? nothing? blink on and off?
or do you mean i need to program it myself?
sorry but im not sure if i follow you here...

Turn signals and reverse are untouched...ie they will work like you have them now. Brakes become LED.

It is not hard to put them in. You can ask flav about it. I do not have installation pics but I can see if I can. It is 310 shipped for you. I am available if you have any questions during the installation as well.

hey kevlo, i was wondering would you be interested instead of selling the LED Board to me, would you be willing to explain to me the process of making them or like lead me in the direction to learn how to make them myself.
I went to a Technical highschool and was in an electronics course so i do know a great deal about circuits and soldering etc..
please PM me if you cna work something out with me.
Thanks
