Driving lights

[Tim 76' 280Z]

I installed some driving lights on the 280 grill to fill in the place where the stock turn signals were. Thanks for the idea Arne!

That is a really good idea i think i mite copy that. I bet it would make the car look cool at night.

Yes it does make the car look really cool at night! I didnt like the idea of the switch for them so I just hot wired them in to the turn signals. They look great!

That is nice. I am going to make my side markers blink and do what you did.

[Tim 76' 280Z]

Im going to have 240 turn signals in the air dam. The driving lights will not blink. I came off the hot wire only.

[john mcgarvie]

Yea I'm going to the pick and pull to find some flat side marker lights.

Please Tim! Not into the parking lights! Totally illegal and annoying to oncoming traffic! Don't give Zs a bad reputation around here! Use a relay and hook them into the high beams instead.

After testing them out I really didnt think they were all that bright so I just tapped into the system....

But then again I dont have the car running so they might get brighter...
