    I know Photo bucket is what every one is using but has anyone used myspace or face book pics.
    I don't yet have a photo bucket account and thought It they worked I wouldn't have to make another spot to put pics! Any way heres a few pics from before the old fashion way!

    These LED's are bright!  Good choice.

    When you say you went "conventional" wiring - what exactly are you referring to?  A standard ISIS system, or the SRT8 wiring and fuse panel? Curious if all that wiring in your post before mine is all lighting related?


    Regarding your photo dilemma, are you able to upload files to your internet service provider (ie the people that provide your internet/email service at your house?)

    Are your taillights scratch-built?

    The lights are scratch built and required cutting the factory buckets up  :faint: That way the "Bar" goes even all the way across cant do that with the bucket in the way. The LEDs are the brightest 8mm LED I could find I went 8 because I think they fit the best for a  single line of LEDs there brighter then 5mm or smaller and the same lumens as all the 10's I could find. You can get brighter like a "CREE" LED but then you need a heat sink and that keeps you from putting them close together. I wanted the neon or laser line look.  Anyway I sourced them from E-bay better pricing then local.

    As in no ISIS just lots of wires  :grinyes: The box you see in the fender is the balast for the HID lights.

    that is one sweet car you have there. that baby better be in a magazine when it is completed it is that good!!!!! did the board that the led's are on come from ebay as well? i found some led's but they appear to be just the bulbs. i am guessing that the board is made where the leds snap in and are power that way instead of individual wire going to everyone of them.

    So  I finally got the weight off my back and got the brakes leak free and bled.  :cooldancing: Geez... The Bigger delay was making a new mounting block for the hydro boost. I though maybe I could get Hydra-Tech to make me a new one with the the hole lowered. Apparently they are to big for there britches!  :sly: They have dropped all tech support and no longer even have a phone number. All service and support goes  to who you bought it from. I got this info from Bill Reilly ( Who I bought mine from.) He's tried to get them to do custom work to no avail.  :screwy: The Hole is set at an angle in the plate and makes it complicated to mill. So I built my own from steel. It came out looking real nice. I kinda like it better in black anyway.  :biggrin: Now everything fits and my brace clears.
    I couldn't stand it any more so I put the wheels on tonight and set it on the ground. It's the first time I've played with the air ride.  :woo: It sits sweet.  :drool: Yes I was a happy boy. Oh because everyone wants to know, It's Only three inches to the rocker panel when shes down!! ( Same as the exhaust and bell housing. )It will drive that low but steering is limited, show cruise only! Sorry the pics kinda suck but it was late and I was in a hurry. Hopefully I can push it out and get a few better pics some sunny day.

     :woo: Glad to see it on all four. I was going to swing by this afternoon. But I had to change the oil in the wife's car. Plus I did a little more work on my hood.

    pretty sweet on all 4  :woo:

    What do you think 30, 60 days tell you can drive it?

    Was the led a custom kit to be made to fit or did you have to find each part?
