Here are my LED rear lights - Thanks to Nismo again

Red Tinting done by my mate Nick (NCR Motors)

last one is my M3

Very nice and look a cheaper option than buying the full replacements.

Come on then, where's the 'how to'

Im happy with the fact the lenses are standard
No keen on the flat led type one - and these cost alot less to do

The look super cool at night

I want, I want, I want

A How-To would be great!

Me too

They look brilliant and yes, I prefer them to the full flat led replacements

I have the flat smoke grey ones but these look better, yes. A DIY guide?

only a few hours to wait until we hopefully see some night shots.

How to!!!

they look pukka now EDz that the lense's match , so when you bringing the paint can around to mine so i can do the same .

They are the best all red lenses I have seen too.
Edz can you tell me where to go for the that first, and how much if you dont mind??

Then ill get on your case Nismo for the LED stuff.
Shall I start ordering that gear off ebay in that link you posted in this thread mate?

Many thanks chaps.

if you order these - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-x-30CM-30-Red-LE...=item4cf118527c you will need to order 2 sets so you can do the tops and bottoms , get yourself another set of lights with the bulb holders and wiring still in them so you can put the old ones back in if you don't like them , then give me a shout and we'll meet up and i'll do them for you and make a how to for everyone else but they are easy to do its just the wiring you need to think about .

Sweet!

Post night pics.

Thanks alot Iain, much appreciated.
Ill sort you a beer...

here are some of mine at night -

And here is a pic of mine at night (after nismo showed me which wire to cut, bit of a bomb disposal moment!)

Iain i took a few pics when i did mine if you need some for a how to.

Would this work?

Looks brilliant nismo and James




Possibly, although may need a bit of extra power and may get too hot. Looks good though

Looking forward to the how too and parts list

Mate they do glow a little red tbh on indicating - as the Coupe is not my main car I live with it - reverse is pink fog light is not a prob.

There slighty darker than the top ones as well

The paint is on the link below that I got

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/E-tech-ETECH-Light...=item43a64b6de2

Ebay Link to Spray about 7 quid

Get someone who is good at spraying to do this - the paint will eat into the lenses not the best plastic (maybe why people have trouble paint them) - Did help the weather is warm.

Get 2 sets of led’s should be about 11 quid - get the 30 led’s - chop 3 off

Split the lenses carefully

Insert the led strips will sit in the cup end lenses part nicely

Glue back together - Nismo also put sealant around the edge for air tight seal

Then a bit of fun wiring them up to your side lights - Most people should be able to figure this out.

Hope this helps as a how too

Just ordered tint and LEDs. Hopefully have it done for Brooklands (along with a million other things )

Phil , if you have ordered the 30 led's you will need to cut them down to 27 led's but be very careful when your doing this . the led's are grouped in 3's so use a very sharp stanly blade when you do it , 30 led's are to much to try and get in the lense .

They look superb by far the only aftermarket/modded lights I've seen that really suit the coupe down to the ground

Edz,

When you say indicators glow a bit red - Is that due to the reflection from the light bulb to and from the led colour ??

R00

its from the spray he used to colour the lense , we are going to try some orange bulbs to see if this helps to make the indicators abit more orange .

Now I like these. Have bought all that is needed. Just the ticket old boy!

Yeah Reverse light is a bit pinky

Seperating the lenses... Is this simlar to doing the headights i.e. heat them up with heat gun to soften adhesive and prise apart? thanks

no i just used a big flat headed screw driver and went arount the lip and you can hear the glue crack as you work your way around the lense , use some marsking tape at one end so you know where to place the lense when you super glue them back together , i also used some sealant around the edge for air tight seal once the super glue had dryed .
