Angel eyes and dynamic LED turn signals [Tail lights retrofit modifications HOW-TO] Alfa Romeo 159 

Something really new and unusual for Alfa Romeo 159/Brera/Spider - tail lights retrofit modifications: angel eyes and dynamic LED turn signals.
How to DIY step-by-step instructions without opening the lights:
00:17 Step 1: Remove the taillights
Remove the tail lights. You need to disconnect the wire connectors, unscrew 3 nuts with wrench number 8 at each light housing part and push it out.
00:28 Step 2: Remove the bulbs and wipe the lights
Remove the bulbs holder and a sealing rubber, wipe the lights.
00:35 Step 3: Measure and cut off LED strips
Flexible LED strips in a silicone transparent casing with side glow will be used as an element for the angel eyes.

Measure and cut off 2 strips 13cm long (for lights on the trunk lid), and 2 strips 15cm long (for side lights)
00:41 Step 4: Stick matte tape
Also, for better and softer light diffusion from the LED strip, stick a half-transparent matte tape on the top side.
00:48 Step 5: Stick double-sided tape
Stick double-sided tape for secure to the taillight housing.
00:55 Step 6: Measure and cut off silicone sticks
So that the light from the LED strip does not look too thin inside the taillight, on top of it add silicone flexible sticks with a 10mm diameter, cut them in half, two 14 cm long and another two 16 cm long (respectively for the lights on the trunk lid and for the side ones)
01:02 Step 7: Put LED strips and silicone sticks inside the tail light
The most exciting moment is stuffing LED strips inside the tail light. With my medium length fingers and thanks to the flexibility of the tape, all this can be done without opening the housing - through the hole for the bulbs.
After successful placement of the tape, place previously prepared silicone sticks on the top of it.
Repeat this for the rest of taillights with strips and silicone sticks into the holes with a red reflector.
01:16 Step 8: Final check
Performance check - connect to 12V power source and look, check that the tape is installed and shines evenly.
Done!
But that’s not all...
01:21 Dynamic (sequential) LED turn signals in 3 steps
01:23 Step 1: Sequential lamp ignition modules
For this we need modules for sequential ignition of bulbs for Ford Mustang.

The module has a wire for incoming voltage (+) from the turn wire (red color), and a black ground wire (-).
And 4 outputs - 3, respectively, for each sequential light bulb, and a ground (-) wire
01:26 Step 2: LED bulbs with dual function
Also we need LED bulbs with dual function (used for DRL + turn signal) - white glow (for brake lights and rear fog) and orange - for turn signals.
Link to buy: ali.ski/uCd7Z
Standard turn signal bulb lefts without changing and stays in place.
01:29 Step 3: Install the bulbs and connect wiring
Install the bulbs in the appropriate places and connect everything to the car's wiring.
Angel eye power wire (+) to the position lights wire, ground wire (-) to the car’s ground wire.
Bulbs additional power wire (+) to the brake/rear fog light wire, and the main power wire (+) to the sequential light bulbs module, ground wire (-) to the car’s ground wire.
Done!
Let's see the result: 01:35
