Tired of the round lights!

I'm a fan of what LED's may become, but they're not there yet for most of us. Except for the uber-expensive variety, they're better for situations that require less output (like turn signals) than headlights. I'd be very curious what the lumen rating is on those.

Clear turn signals are needed now.

You can't ship flat rate postal? I did to you.

Canada post international is through Purolator. They only ship via Air to Alaska.

Unless you have someone in the lower 48 that I can send them to and they can send to you.

I agree LED's are just not there yet for Headlights. I know of some that are super bright in white but I wouldn't get them just yet for headlights.

I'll see how these perform.

Clear turn signals were never in the plan and never will be. The amber LED's I have now are perfect.

I've got the 64 "Ford" on the back hatch.

ooohhh purty!

Might have to copy that

I feel stupid now. It's the blinkers that really set it off. Was a 64 grill ur inspiration? If so, its brilliant.

 

[wrecking-crew]

could i place an order for a set?

It's funny how everyone wants to try this but no one is committed to doing it.

Andrew when is the next time your going to see your Brother? Is he still in OH?

I'm not sure how much Air freight shipping would be. The bezels would be under 1 lb for sure. That pachage I sent Jeff was over 40 lbs and it was over $150 to ship it air freight. I was able to cut the cost in half by shipping it to a guy I know state side and he USPS'd it the rest of the way.

I'd like to try jelcoating the next set I make. I have 2 liters of grey paintable Jelcoat.

I won't see him probably at all this year. The closest I will be to you would be Vancouver on the 1st of may. But I have no idea where I'll be staying yet.

Tried them at night yet? How's the light output?

 

[CopyKat]

I'll check again what prices are for air shipping. It may be reasonable.

Pat I have not tried them out at night yet. The truck has been in hibernation for some time now. Should have it out next week for some testing and tuning.

I tried them out last night and they are pretty decent. They light up the road signs better than the old lights did.

BTW Jester I still have the molds for the bezels. $36 +shipping will get you an untrimmed set.

You wanna make me a set? What do you mean by "untrimmed"?

 

[CopyKat]

You will need to cut the center hole out and the outside will need final trimming.

 

[The Jester Race]

How much more to get you to cut the center hole for me? Im not very good with circles.:icon_twisted:

 

[CopyKat]

I won't do it because of the fact I don't know what lights your using. The hole I cut may be too large or too small for your liking. I'd rather you cut them, then it's not my fault if they are cut wrong. Know what I mean? If I had your truck here in my shop I would fit them for you but it's a long drive for you.

 

[The Jester Race]

Fair enough. How did you cut the hole? Router?

Carbide burr, unless you have a 7" holesaw
