    Looks great!

    VERY impressive! I especially like the way you installed an optional switch in the cockpit for the engine bay lights.

    The LED tail lights are VERY bright too. Good job!

    Well, after changing my fuel pump after dark -- twice -- with only that single stock bulb in place, I decided to improve the situation as much as I could.

    Thanks!

    Since the original plunger switch in the engine compartment was broken, and I had an extra rocker switch anyway, I decided to just use that instead. The power source is from inside the car, and the lights are grounded to the engine.

    The LED bulbs in the brake lights were from Autolumination, and the extra "third" brake lights are two light bars from JC Whitney.

    Those lights look quite neat. I like the blue LED's especially inside the car. Very good way to check and see what you're doing in the dark.

    I used all white LEDs. The color balance on my camera might have made them look a bit bluer -- or it could be your computer monitor. Or YouTube. :shrug:
