Default Corner Light

Okay, In my corners, which I still haven't gotten into my truck, there is a small hole that is taped into the bottom part of the light, behind some sort of reflector, and I was thinking it would be cool to put some sort of LED in there that would flash with the turn signal, or even alternately which would be very cool if I could get it to work. How much work would it be to get them to flash independently?

Here is a picture of the hole I am talking about that is just asking for a LED.

the purple peice just covers the hole

Yes PLEASE, I thgouth that it was so funny the second, third, and fourth time you posted it.

Im searously getting sick of your stupid posts, how that hell is that Mexican? you must think that every vechical that is newer than a 2004 is mexican too huh? how about the new audi's? Those must be the most mexican car ever made?



you are right, I can just see juawn and pablo trying to figure out the woring on that, I herd that they even used the good chewing gum to hold the leds in there.

Think of it this way, LED's all have different characteristics, and you can get rather "large" LED's that will throw quite a bit of light, and the fact that it would be behind a reflector will also help fill it up.

I can always tap in more LED's, It is just that the hole is already there, so I figure I might as well give it a try, and If I don't like it, I will only be out a few bucks and a hour or two of my time.

true, thats a good way to look at it. not many people have that, so it might look cool and original, but then again, not many people have spoilers on their truck but that doesnt that look good at all.
