New style LED front turn signals...
EDIT!! Since photobucket wants to rip us off to post photos, I've added the link to my library so you can go direct to the source!

As some of yall know, I had created my first set of front turn signals a few years ago (link here https://ls1tech.com/forums/appearanc...very-easy.html ) and my custom tail lights (https://ls1tech.com/forums/appearanc...il-lights.html)... and I had hinted on making the new ones there. Well now that Im done moving for a while, I sat down last night and knocked out the little bit I had left to finish and got the lights on the car! I must say, I should have done these a while ago, because they look just plain awesome. With my old style, they were tinted and it was hard to see the signals during the day time. With these, it is quite the contrary...
Here is the old pics from last night....
and a video in action....
and the new set up...
and the new video...
if you reference the other link you can see what the old style was in the day time...

Did you solder the bars together yourself or can you buy them together like that? Also, what did you do to heat up the housing to take the lens off? I know you can heat up the OEM headlight housing pretty good but I'm worrid about my ebay turns.
Those things are bright as hell now. Look great man.

I'm diggin' the new look!
Do you have any day pictures out in the sun? I used 5050 3-chip SMD strips for my set-up, which I believe to be the brightest strips available at the moment and they are a little too dim during day for my taste. I'm curious to see how your set-up looks in comparison.

One question Frank...
Can you make me a set and how much? I am done with appearance but really would love a set of those... I would attempt the build myself but I am in Afghan and won't be home for a while... Would love them sitting in my garage though!!!
