I thought I would just show you guys what I got and how it looks. I got this kit off of ebay for about 20 bucks or so and am pretty satisfied with it. Here is the pics and the link to buy it. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. (I also have LEDs in my dome, trunk, and ashtray lights too. pics later)

LOL for some reason my license plate was gone is this pic... :crazyeyes: This pic really does no justice for the license lights. They light up behind my car like floodlights at night.... They light up a bright half circle about 4 feet in diameter. :D It's awesome...

USE THIS THREAD TO POST PICS OF UR LED MODS

Nice man.
For my trunk i got a 15" white cathode tube for a computer and re-wired it and it lights up my whole trunk, not just a little iddy bitty part of the trunk.

Here is couple LEDs that I actually have pics of. This one is the Superstar Wedge in my LP.

Image

I love my green LEDs in my corners. They are the Matrix II I believe. Each corner LED has 32 LEDs in it and its f*ckin bright. Ive been warned twice by the cops about them but I dont care.

Image

I also have LEDs in my reverse(superwhite), rear turns(which are green as well), and trunk(superwhite) but I havent taken pics of them yet. When I do I'll post'em up. 8)

black v6- seeing your license plate lights remind me of when I had them before...it looks good for sure. I think I'll go back to LEDs there as well.

And a question...what bulbs did you use for the brake lights? Because I had led brake light bulbs for a while until I took them out because friends who were following my car said that they couldn't see them light up during the day. At night they were fine, but they weren't bright enough during the day

The led brake lights were too dim. I use regular incandescent. I used to have them in the turn signals but they were also too dim.
