Thanks, I had to copy you

Did you check out geo's LED tails in hte 4th gen forum? They look very interesting.
So when you turn on your headlights, 2 rows light up (the "dim" part) and the other 3 light up when you press the brakes? Can't you make all 5 rows light up when you press the brakes during the day?
Nice tails tho

do you guys think this is worth it to do to 96 tails??and to those that done it ,if you had a 96 would you???
and one more thing do you put a resistor in betweern each led or just per row or how is it done can anyone make a simple write up . I kindaof understand it but am not sure.

Hey kevlo911, they look great! Love 'em!
2 questions (not sure if you saw my other post):
1. Did you wire them parallel?
2. How did you fix boards with LEDs in place (with screws or glue)???
Thanks!!

1.) Yes, I ran them parallel. All negatives connected,the positives brake connected together, and positive clearence lights connected. I ended up with 3 wires comming out.
2. I hot glued the boards in place, I cut them peferectly to hte white reflector peice that I took out.
WTF, Only 5 people have this mod, I was the 4th one. So how is this verypopular?

When more than 3 people, but less than 5, do a custom modification that most people can't perform themselves and no one will do for them hence becomes "rice" or "overdone." It is impossible to argue with these people because they know that the modification is really easy and that they could do it themselves, but they don't want to lower themselves and jump on the bandwagon."
I can't remember exactly where that is stated in the maxima.org FAQ, but I have seen it in there somewhere..

Umm i know how to add but if you look at pic #2 there are only 2 rows on while he is on the brake and in pic #3 there are 5 rows on while he is on the brake. I am going to guess that in pic #3 the lights were on in order to get the 5 rows, but that is something that kevlo911 can clear up.
