middle tail light

my cousin and i just modified his eclipse so that his middle tail light actually lights up. it was quite a project. we took pictures all along the way and will have a site up for it pretty soon. it looks awesome. it is a mod that will set you apart from the rest!

Re: middle tail light

hopefully it will be up this week. we are designing a web page that will have how to`s on all of the stuff we have come up with between our two cars. we have both put in push button ignitions and shortened our own shifters. we do stuff like this when we get bored at night. we finally decided to start taking digital pictures of everything we do now.

Re: middle tail light

not foil. i used silver paint. its just about the same thing as the inside of most turn signals and stuff. the tinfoil reflected the light to well. any wrinkle was showing up.

Re: middle tail light

i was stupid and bought an expensive ignited s2000 style button. once i realized the circutry of the ignition system i realized that and kind of momentary button would work. my cousin starts his car by pushing in his cigarette lighter.

Re: middle tail light

Hey ash, does your shifter knob light up? If so, I have that exact same one sitting in my glove compartment! I haven't put it on though, it's too ricey

Re: middle tail light

Mine does too! Every girl that has ever ridden in my car loves how it lights up, haha. I can't turn it on at night when I'm driving though, cause it fucks up my vision because of those damn strobes!
