L.E.D. Reverse Lights- The lights replace the reflectors in the rear bumper and will give you LED back up lights and reflectors all in one.
You can order them in white or red that look more stock. You can also order the optional 1156 adapters that will allow you to just plug them in place of the reverse light bulb so you don't have any mods to do.
With your order you get 2 lights (wire in style) Your choice of red or white, 4 new retainers. The optional 1156 adapters come with 2 custom 1156 adapters & 4 weathertite heat shrink connectors.
This mod can be removed and the stock reflectors can be re-installed if you want to put it back to stock. The output is about 2 times the lighting of the stock lights, they have clear lens and are plug and play.
The prototype reverse lights were displayed on my metallic green 85 GT at Fierorama 2012 and the final desgn was shown on my 86 GT, 2013 Fierorama best of show non-stock.
msrservices took 2 great shots of the hitch and reverse lights at 2013 Fierorama.
Here is a few pics at night. The wall is about 30 feet from the back of the car.
This shot is with all the lights off. See how bright the reflector is in the reverse lights, about as bright as the plate when the flash from the camera hits it.

Well sounds like I need to get busy. The goal is to have them shipped before Fierorama. I will post a pic after I have them ready for sale.
If you posted thanks, but please update your post so I know what style you need (see pics). I dont want a bunch of inventory hanging around for years so I will do a large run to take care of all and make an extra dozon or so.
**The 2 photos below are not of the lights, it's only to show the two styles used on Fieros**
The long one is for 87-88 base and Formula bumpers The short one is for all with aero bumpers
I will post a photo and more info when product is ready for sale. You are not required to buy them if you pre-order I just want to make sure I make enough for all who may want them and in the styles you need.
Thanks,
Vince

Interested in GT rear facia mounted B.U. Lights but would like to see pics of the finished product first. Would need a set if the custom light panel that I have on order comes through.
------------------ " THE BLACK PARALYZER" -87GT 3800SC Series III engine, custom ZZP /Frozen Boost Intercooler setup, 3.4" Pulley, Powerlog manifold, Northstar TB, LS1 MAF, 3" Flotech Afterburner Exhaust, Autolite 104's, MSD wires, Custom CAI, 4T65eHD w. custom axles, HP Tuners VCM Suite. "THE COLUSSUS" 87GT - ALL OUT 3.4L Turbocharged engine, Garrett Hybrid Turbo, MSD ign., modified TH125H " ON THE LOOSE WITHOUT THE JUICE "
I'd be interested in some fastback ones. Heck I'd even drive all the way there to pick them up! How will these sit in relation to the bumper surface? Flush or recessed, if recessed how much.
Just a heads up I'm also working on some LED turns for the front, With and without Led fog/driving/fill lights built into the the replace factory turns.
More to come on this one after the back up lights are in production. Get ready all as I have about 10 more things coming that I think you'll like.

Working on the final fit and finish, Then it's time to start casting them.. Not to long out now trying to have a finished product for the Fierorama show to display.
Update: Not quite happy with the final product so I'm reworking it just a little and should be back on track soon to post a finished for sale item. All that know me and my products know I don't sell till it's ready for my stamp.

Any pics of this on a Fiero and working? Just wanted to see it. Sounds like a cool idea! Props!
I dont have a pic of the 2nd design but you can see a set of the prototypes I was using for R&D in this pic.. The final product lens is different looking but it gives you the idea.
Again the photo is not a pic of the final for sale product, I will post a pic when I have a unit for sale just waiting on circuit boards now.

I'll take a small set for an 87 GT. How difficult is the install? Do you simply splice into the existing back up wires?
Greg
Not hard at all. Remove the reflectors and bolt the light in place, the wires are can be spliced into the stock reverse lights. I will also have a plug available that fits into the stock bulb socket so you dont have to splice into wiring.
100% in with the bulb fitting! What is the estimated ETA of avaiability? Thanks!

Project is on a slight hold. Working on a project for the 30th anniversary show. I will be back on the lights after that. The PCB are here and I should have all I need to finish the back up lights befor to long.
