December 1, 200420 yr Author comment_103804 this is the proto of the map light that I made. the pics are'nt that great but give you an idea of the possibility's with led's. it's a perfect fit and no mods are needed to install it. it has 18 pure white led's in it. The last is of the dome light led's that I made. Its not as bright as it may appear but will be as soon as I can find some one to make a "clear" lense for the dome assembly instead of the stock "white frost" one that we all have. It has 15 pure white led's in it. its a real snug fit and needs to be modified a little more before it's a final product. Dave.

December 1, 200420 yr Author comment_103807 lets just say that the map light can be seen 1.5 miles away, ok probably not but YES it is more of an office light (pure light, not the soft glow that we're all used to) now and is brighter than stock.how much would ya pay for something like that, Carl?Dave.

December 1, 200420 yr comment_103808 Hi Dave: I don't know. Right now I probably don't have the money to buy one, anyway. As a buyer, cheaper is always better.

December 1, 200420 yr Author comment_103809 Duh carl! :stupid: I'm the KING of cheap. I don't use the map light that much, but when I do, the difference is night and day. I just stare at the pretty light and drewl on my self. It's a bad habbit but "it's what I do" Dave.

December 1, 200420 yr comment_103810 Most likely, I will wait and buy it when you guys have something for the taillights, or side markers, or whatever. To combine shipping cost, and hopefully by then I'll have more spare cash anyway Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/13730-led-solutions-for-dash-and-other-lights/?&page=4#findComment-103810 Share on other sites More sharing options...
December 1, 200420 yr Author comment_103812 Carl,Me and Will are trying to come up with a few options and also come up with a full compliment to the lighting systems on the early Z's, ie: tail, side, front and interior, including the dash lights. I'm in the middle of unpacking after the big move and I'm a little slow at getting back on the horse.give us time and we'll come up with some good results, I promise.Dave.

December 1, 200420 yr comment_103815 Ok, I can get back in here now-my 1921 house had an electrical challenge that took out my computers-it is patched, and complete repairs are being scheduled-what did I miss?Yes, we are working on the led lighting situation! We have both made several prototypes, and are talking over our individual ideas so as not to duplicate work until we have each upgrade is worked out. several lighting solutions are not too far off!Will Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/13730-led-solutions-for-dash-and-other-lights/?&page=4#findComment-103815 Share on other sites More sharing options...

December 1, 200420 yr comment_103827 The l.e.d. replacements just plug in where the bulbs were. You would just pull out the bulbs and plug in the l.e.d. Don't you have any ricer shops in your area? They should be able to get these replacement units for you straight away. About the only GOOD thing the ricers have to offer.cheers, Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/13730-led-solutions-for-dash-and-other-lights/?&page=4#findComment-103827 Share on other sites More sharing options...
December 1, 200420 yr comment_103847 Dave and I have talked about listing parts, selling kits and selling the whole assembly-we will make it work for everyone if possable-if shipping is too horrible, we could send you a discription of the procedure, and if that doesn't scare you, and parts list-after we get it all sorted out-still a ways to go.TomoHawk-what we are working on will be 100% rice free, and have the quality of the new cars mentioned earlier-several leds on a stalk just won't do!Will Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/13730-led-solutions-for-dash-and-other-lights/?&page=4#findComment-103847 Share on other sites More sharing options...
