That foam tape seems to also help raise the diffuser panel away from the leds to provide the right distance needed for proper diffusion. (As well as block light leakage). Thanks for another good tip!

@HAMMER_2.2 3 года назад

Thanks dudes! I finally tore open my smoked obs chevy tails to start testing designs using the diffuser strips and red led strips i got from you. Prelim testing went excellent!

@SLU2MOVIES 3 года назад

Awesome work, thanks for your videos :) I think I feel confident enough to do one myself now. Your videos are really clear, and very informative :) Thanks alot for everything :)

Nice!!! Cool to get a BTS look on the whole diy lights thing

I will never do these, yet I am always watching Custom Headlight/Taillight videos lol

Bro nice tutorial honestly if you get to make the 10th gen civic coupe tail light better you will be a hero because honestly I think it’s one of the taillights with the most potential.

I apologize if you specify in the tutorial, but I would like to know what the controller you used was to sequence?

What temp do run your soldering iron, do you ever change temps between soldering certain projects? (Like tinning a wire vs soldering delicate smd projects etc?)

@kirklishman8997 2 года назад

You can do it at 380c with a solder iron

Is it possible to order custom panels? I would love to get into this but no one knows my SUV model exists 😂

@MrDaavee Год назад

I prefer Ghozt and Blueghozt a lot more than the zLed stuff. Always had issues with zled boards and sort lives. Otherwise not a bad build for a beginner out there willing to attempt their own build. Made it easy for them to understand. Few things I would do differently, but solid build nonethless.

@canadianbacon7904 2 года назад

Where can I purchase the diffusing material and what is it called?

@kevinjones2208 Год назад

This link is some diffusing material that would work well in tail lights, but unfortunately it is expensive. www.eplastics.com/lighting-diffusers/led You might be able to look up LED diffuser channels on amazon and take the diffuser portion out of it and use it for the taillight if you can find a channel that is wide enough to cover the portion of the taillight that is needed.

Is that shoe glue that you are using or a glue named Shugu?

@hazetrinity66 2 года назад

These guys make cool stuff. They just suck at responding to people's comments and questions. It annoying when youtubers/sellers/service providers do that shit. People will just go somewhere else.

@JP-gd1ln 2 года назад

good info cool video but damn dude is clumsy as..... how many times can you knock one housing over

@headlightdesigngradacac 3 года назад

I'm not trying to being smart but... Instead of that glue maybe using fast glue with activator would work better ans cleaner?

@illumaesthetic 3 года назад

any item that's 2-part (epoxies, etc) releases heat upon curing (aka warp certain plastics), and is also somewhat of a pain to remove if you need to undo it for whatever reason. Hence why we don't use it. But in some situations, its definitely better.

@HAMMER_2.2 3 года назад

Not always the case with styrene panels

@thefreedomguyuk Год назад

Epoxy would have eaten the foam

@JohnS-hp2xu 2 года назад

The solder joints on the LEDs came loose while you were trying to solder the other wire to it. What keeps the wires from coming off of the LED strips while the car is jostling on the road?

@JohnS-hp2xu 2 года назад

Maybe I should just continue watching and find out? Lol

@Thewolverine691 Год назад

14v led strip hahaha yeah good one buddy all 12v led strips will sustain 14v so that is false.

@illumaesthetic Год назад

This is incorrect. You can run 12V strips at 14V, but you will overheat and overcurrent them - reducing their lifespan.

@Thewolverine691 Год назад

@@illumaesthetic bullshit i am an auto sparky an alternator in a car runs a max of 14v 14.3 to be exact. So peddle ya bullshit somewhere else buddy. Also why not run a pcb board instead of using led strips you can buy on ebay for $9 and a sequencer for $11

@timothyodell5245 3 месяца назад

@@Thewolverine691 Take it you never considered overvoltage hence the reason for higher led strip voltage to prevent premature failure. SMH Majority of the people who add these lights have a project car that's likely not stable with voltage anyways so that's another thing to consider SMFH.
