That's cool. Im gonna order a set for myself, so that if I end up effing them up beyond use, nobody is out any money. If they turn out nice, you'll be the first to know.

 

sounds great. thanks

 

i vote write up!!

 

How much do you want to make one for me? We do share the convertible title after all, and my 3rd brake light is coincidentally burned out.

A while back we were talking about using CCFL rings to make taillights out of. I found a small set on Ebay that I still may try to do something with.

 

Lets see here.. 6 resistors, some pcb, 1 voltage regulator, 30 superflux LEDs, solder, wire, glue...

$20 plus shipping back to you sound fair? Ya gotta send me your third brake light and I would need a day to finish it up.

 

i got a set of those tail lights form a guy on ebay and the clear plastic fell off them and the studs did not lign up with the holes on my car and also the electrical connectors were a cheap knock off and did not fit. then the person i bought them from wouldnt do anything and said that i altered the lights and would not send me a replacement

 

Hmm... mine came with 2 sets of connectors, 1 for the kouki 180sx wiring, and 1 for USDM 240sx wiring. The studs were also poorly aligned on mine, but a little gentle hammering with my palm and they worked just fine. The connectors did have some issues though, and would cause me to lose a brake light or a blinker every now and again.
Still got those tails?

 

I gotta see how to get the taillight off. But yeah, sounds good man. I'll get back to you.

 

that's an awesome deal, i would charge around $50/hr labor to do work like this lol

 

lol mang. I gotta cut some slack for the only other vert I know of on the forum...

And taking out the third brake light takes like 30 seconds. Look on the front of the wing, and there are 2 screws that hold the light in. Pull em out and there ya go.
