Cool videos. Have gone through quite a few, but I haven't seen just how you make the covers for your custom turn lights. Well done. They are spot on.

Have to give you plenty of credit for promoting these vendors, and small companies. Glad to see someone try to move the industry and not be a hater. Hope to see you do good things.

No not specifically, but the internet is ripe with this kind of this talk. A lot of people are trying to be internet famous and don't really have anything to offer. I am more of a work in the background kind of person, and do what is best for the greater good, so seeing your passion for the industry is pretty cool and often missing. Guys love "dope-rides" but don't know how much work it takes to make it happen.

Those switch backs look so good

Just wanna say thanks for everything you do, I really appreciate it and learning so much. Btw you make the best stuff man.

@@flyryde oh man had some custom work done on some brand new lights, then shipped to me... if only I had seen your video first. The strip looks horrible and the job wasn't the best. Between buying a new pair of lights and the cost for parts, labor and mod a quick $600 down the drain.

What glue do you use to mount the strips? I don't want to just rely on the 3M backing. I am cutting up a set of Profile Pivot Switchbacks and mounting them inside 04 Silverado headlights along with a projector retrofit.

I have a C5 Corvette with aftermarket ACA style headlights from Corvette Envy. Is there a drop-in board to fit these? If not, what do you recommend? I was thinking maybe a "L" or "C" shaped strip light to outline the outside ends of the housing and a halo on the projector bezel. Have you done any of these headlights?

Would you know of a 2008 nissan murano headlight replacement with aftermarket LEDs and how to install. Thanks.

What about using acrylic or polycarbonate? You can bend it by heating and scuff sand the edge facing up and it diffuses out. I've been wanting to try it but I don't know how they are doing the LEDs. I'm guessing it's a strip stuck on the other side? Like a long solid lightning ⚡ bolt like fiber optic.

How do I dim down led switch back strips so I can use them at night as a turn signal /running light..12v source.

Cool - now make me some for the QX70 :D

I'm so new to this that I don't even understand how you are making the LEDS change from white to amber, or how you are making the amber blink... and then on top of that, how does it all hook up to your vehicle? Especially if you have showy sequential LED options... How???

How to select high quality led strips specially buying onlines all ofthem are the same just looking to it?

I’m looking to try to retrofit my 14’ Q/G37s coupe taillights first to familiarize myself with the process but I’d really like to do my headlights next. Any advice or suggestions on where to source these parts? I’m also interested in your online course.

Nice job bro, very impressive. I tried to connect led strip to my 2020 F150 daylight/signal but don't know which color to connect to. Please help if ya could or have a sample F150. TIA

Do you guys create the drivers yourself or source them from somewhere?

How do you power everything when testing the lights and stuff?

I am so going overboard with my 2011 Civic Si retrofit! I was just going to go with projectors for better visibility, but since the light will be open I want to add demon eyes and if I can find a spot that doesn't look stupid, I will put an led strip in there.

@@flyryde I agree. I have since decided not to run a strip, but I will probably go with a set of halos instead. Have you ever changed the color of the halo ring? Since the white might pop too much in my dark housing, I was thinking of spraying a thin layer of clear mixed with a little black to tint the white halo a little so it looks more smoked than bright white. But not too much as to effect color output. I'm an automotive painter and I found that tinting clear with base is the best way to tint headlights/taillights, so that's where I got the idea..

QUESTION: ON THE STRIP OF MOULDED - the version where the light appears continuous - WHAT TYPE OF GLUE GLUE CAN BE USED.

COMMENT: Here in VietNam they have moulded junctions into these strips can be plugged. The moulded "joint" has flasher circuitry. There are many of these things from China. Thanks.

One thing I would really like to see is how to change the look of a head like and what I mean by that is like if u got that chrome back ground for Halogen and you go update that with a led projector, how do you enhance that bezel make it look newer besides just painting it black. Also like how you would ad custom drl and clear out blinker covers. If you know that would be amazing video.

Literally NOTHING will ever be as bright as OEM, period. Unless OEM is known to be very week, there’s no chance a simple part is going to out do the amount of R&D time and money that OEMs use. But they’ll look dope at night 👌

Are they visible in sunlight? Ordinary led strips intended for interior decoration and outdoor signs aren't since it has been said that there should be at least 3500 mcd for them to be visible in bright direct sunlight.

So the brightest one here is Diode Dynamics? Can it be clearly seen in daytime?

No need to send anything in bro, everyone wants what you’re trying to explain. It also doesn’t exist. People either go cheap and bulky, or they try to force parts to work that don’t really look right. There’s a huge majority of ideas that simply can’t be done (well), because the perfect parts don’t exist. Full custom can get close to perfect, but they’ll also be multiple times as expensive. Hope that makes sense.

I tried some of the clear diffuser from Lowe's, that is for the tube type flourscent celing lights. But the textured part that does the diffusing, is too big to work for automotine stuff. It looked like crap. But being plastic it was easy to cut and shape with my Dremel, sabre saw ( if you try this use one that you can control the speed cutting slower stops the plastic from melting back together behind the blade ), and heat gun. It just didn't diffuse the light the way I thought it would. It might have looked ok behind yellow or red lenses, but I didn't like how it looked so I never tried it behind the taillight lenses. 😤

“Like OEM” is unfortunately saying “Like the biggest richest companies in the world do it”, to which the sad truth is no, not quite. Modern lights have daytime visibility in mind from the start, so every piece and component is made for it. You can’t replicate that with a little LED strip, even though they do look absolutely amazing at night 👍

I used those flexi-tube type switchback lights....back in 2012...lolz, they were actually the _"Hottest"_ new thing in automobile lighting, they now seem low rent compared to today's LED tech. I LED'd the shit out of a 2000 Dodge Intrepid, 688 LED's mostly blues and whites (along w/ over 3000 "Skulls" Huge Skull Fan, so of course gonna have a skulled-out vehicle @ sumpoint in me life.) I outlined my headlight lenses from the inside with them cuz of the flex (aftermarket cali-halo type w/ angel eye I put in, so guess they were *"After-After-Market lights* ;) ) because of the switchback, wired them as blueish D/L & amber Turns..... 17 months later, some Va State trooper rookie trying to kiss superior ass, decided I had just a lil too much blue illumination (I did, all various blues, surprised I lasted 16-17 months).No ticket, but had to go back in and swap out a lotta lights...D'ohhhh!!!
