Both my rear spoiler and all my led's for my brake/turn signals/reverse light arrived

Damn shame I had to work late and have to go in early tomorrow :yucky:

You know we gotta see some pics

I just got some LEDs for the interior in the mail today, but wanted to see the brake/turn/reverse LEDs in action before I ordered them, so I'm looking forward to know how they look

I also changed out the turn signal relay to an LED friendly model and yes, the plate bulbs were changed out to LED as well

I dig the reverse light the most, so I'll probably order that & the license plate bulbs next...

 

[lvbitwiz]

The pics dont really do it justice (I've really got to get a batter camera)

Thanks for the pix and parts list, lvbitwiz. I was wondering if you needed to install any resistors to keep the bulb out indicators from acting up? Also, was there any reason why you didn't get the high output LED for the backup light?

Thanks again!

 

[lvbitwiz]

No resistors needed with the flasher unit. As I had said, the pics dont do it justice, that reverse light lit up my driveway, the camera autoexposed

 

[lvbitwiz]

Oh yeah, this took about an hour (and alotta nerve)

Here's a couple of pics that I took while I installed it just to give you an idea of what you're getting into if you DIY it. Keep in mind I followed the instructions provided **to the letter** , measured several times over and made plenty of tweaks to the templates until they were spot on. Measure twice cut one? nope, measure 500 times, centerpunch correctly and drill Oh yeah, and drill stops are a must if you dont want to risk damaging anything

setting the templates

after centerpunch

ready to drill

and 'dry' fit after drilling

The instructions http://www.trdsparks.com/install/PT921-52081-XXinst.pdf were very easy to follow and the templates werent plain ol paper, more like a printed mylar precut sheet. Most difficult part of the install was getting the templates set right, after that it's pretty much bolt/stick on

Where the hell do you install the flash unit? I assume it's in the fuse panel but which one is it? Somebody please help, I hate the hyper blink.
