If I understand this correctly, you could do any lighting pattern you want. Could you do Audi R8 style taillights? (rectangles)


i iam planning 3 red rectangles with 5mm LED (same size like the Fiero in this here ) surrounded by a rectangle of 10mm LED like in this set here .
iam calculating 1440LED aat least for this type . 5 mm LED let the rectangles appear as solid rectangle .

the idea of changing the taillightstyle by a selector will be in 3rd set i guess .

wow amazing!
this might have been asked already.
i was to interested in the photos!
how much did it cost you to make and how long did it take you??
looks like a super time consuming project!
but worth it
i want to do something like this.

are
sexy as all hell

one thing though.. maybe a taillight lens tint? idk somehow the idea of seeing millions of LEDS while my tails are off isnt appealing
plus i have a black notchie and would hate to ruin the clean dark look..
either way its friggin awesome
