Re: Mostizzles dime
You can fit your hand behind the light from the top? I'll have to look again. I'm pretty sure I have to pull my bumper to change turn signal bulbs too. IIRC I tried it once before and there was no room because the Bravada bumper doesn't stick out as much.

Re: Mostizzles dime
I don't think there's enough room. I guess I could get off my ass and look.......nah, I'll wait until the bulbs show up. lol
Well I got those LED panels today only to find out that my measurements were an inch off. lol Now I'm either going to just use 1 or try to figure out a way to cut one down. Here's what the circuit board looks like, and the lights. Tips and thoughts on cutting one of these down? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Mostizzles dime
Looks like the board is set up as a bus system with each row of 3 LEDs having its own resistor, so you should be able to trim the board down with a Dremel and jumper the two busses together to replace the trace you cut off on one side and have it work just fine.

Re: Mostizzles dime
Yeah, there's a bus on the other side that has to be jumped. I can't solder to save my life so I've decided to say fcuk it and just use the one for now.
I did put the LEDs in my front markers today... ![]() ![]() Also broke the clip tabs off my grille(knew it), was reminded of how much I need new headlight assemblies, and noticed a stone chip in my grille. Whatever though, at least now I won't have to worry about breaking my grille while removing it anymore. I could two part epoxy the shit back together but I replaced the inserts that the 4 upper grille bolts thread into and they do a fine job of holding the grille on tight by themselves. |

Re: Mostizzles dime
Hey Mo snap a pic when it's dark out. I am curious as to how well they light up.
I have 2 led panels for my dome light and I've stuck with one for now. I find it to be enough personally. |

Just took these...
![]() ![]() Pics really don't show how they look in person. They're a lot brighter and more yellow. There were amber 194s in there before so they looked orangy. |

Re: Mostizzles dime
Well I messed with the dome light today. I found that the closer the panel is to the lens the crappier it looks so I decided to hardwire it and eliminate the stock bulb fixture so the panel lays flat in the bezel.
Pulled out the stock terminals and drilled a hole in the bezel that the panels wires can pass through... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Should look really good when a Kansas member does me a solid and gets me a clear lens from LMC. lol I might just say fcuk it and order one sooner or later. |

Re: Mostizzles dime
Now you've got me wanting an LED dome light...not sure if I wanna go with white, or red to match my LED footwell lighting. I'll be installing a Blazer overhead console so I can use the map lights if I actually need to see something, thought the all red lighting could look cool as hell...

Re: Mostizzles dime
I kinda had my eye on this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/18-5050-SMD-...ht_2476wt_1274
I've got a couple 6x 5050 panels in the stock footwell lights that throw a ton of light...also it's from a US seller so it should take less than the month it takes from Hong Kong Fooey. |

Re: Mostizzles dime
Not bad. I'm a cheap ass though, and it only took like a week and a half to get them. lol That price isn't as bad as most of the other U.S. sellers on there is.

Re: Mostizzles dime
Funny I find stuff from China actually ships way faster than within America for some reason. I've had stuff bounce all over the damn country for 3 weeks before getting to me where it seems from China it just comes direct.

Re: Mostizzles dime
damn, your package was held for 3 months? Was there any chafing? Did you end up with prune dick? lol
Here's this weekends reason for not working on my truck... Vettebro had caliper fail which cause a brake fire. It pretty much destroyed all the brake components and the bearings in the trailing arm so we replaced everything... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Coolest table/storage cabinet ever... ![]() Sweet Bentley... ![]() I posted all those in the cell phone thread too so don't get your shorts in a knot if you've seen them already. Here's a pic of my dome light at night. The pic really doesn't do it justice...

Yeah I need to get that thing running. It needs body work and it just plain sucks to drive, needs updated brakes, steering and front suspension.

Re: Mostizzles dime
Yep. I bought it a long time ago, swapped the tired 318 for a fresh one and never finished it. Needs everything under the hood wired and all new brakes to be drivable. I also have a 400 and big block 727 for it but I just don't have the time or money right now.
