TeeJay3800 Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 for the tail lights, use Nightshades....buy it at http://www.summitracing.com ....you spray the outsides, it looks great and the light shines through great...... So the tails aren't dimmed at all after spraying them? Quote
Carotop Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 Ok can you tint windows with that stuff? And if so do you have to take the glas out? Quote
jeremy Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 the tails are dimmed the slightest slightest bit, not really noticeable.....the local cops drive behind me all the time at night and I have never got pulled over for them..... .....I personally wouldn't use they spray on the windows.....

Darksyde Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 Ok 4 thick coats will def. dim the effect of normal bulbs. Super white bulbs are good. But i got the 3157 LED's and they work the best. At night there is really no noticable dif. During the day they are very hard to see. I have been pulled over for mine many times. Never a ticket however. And NO niteshades cannot be used on glass. But VHT makes a spray tint for specifically glass. Buckethead.......MMFCCL Quote
terryk2003 Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 yeah, i could see myself getting pulled over by these asshole cops in my town also...i'm a lil concerned about that...i don't wanna do it then get a ticket, then have to get some new tailights...i might test it out on some J/Y tailights if i ever come across some... but, ALSO...will the light tinting stuff work to tint a license plate cover?...cause i have smoked one's and they are not very dark at all ...i wanna make em darker!...

Euro Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 i saw on summitracing.com that they had VHT stuff for tinting windows. Darksyde, what do you use 3157 LEDs for?? arent the lumina turn signals 3057?? the 3157 and 3057 looked different to me...hmm id like to get LEDs for my car. Quote
Darksyde Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 The 3157 bulbs are dual filiment bulbs. As are 3057. In reality there is no difference between the 2. They are interchangable. Right now i have modified the front corner marker/turns to 194 orange LED bulbs. As well as 3157 orange Led's in the front marker/turns. And the 3157 White Led's in the B/U light and 3157 Red Led's in every spot in the taillights. I like the look of led's. quick on quick off. Very bright. However led's in combo with niteshades makes for a normal strength brightness showing through. Quote
Carotop Posted November 3, 2004 Report Posted November 3, 2004 Do you have any pics with your lights on? I'm just wondering how that would look. Quote
Darksyde Posted November 3, 2004 Report Posted November 3, 2004 Actually no i don't i'll see if i can get some on here though. Quote
Euro Posted November 3, 2004 Report Posted November 3, 2004 where did you get all the LEDs from, and what brand are they?? also, did you nightshade the WHOLE taillight, or just the red lens? on a side note, whats with the saturn with the park bench on it in your sig pic Darksyde...i just noticed it Quote
HokemBokem Posted November 3, 2004 Report Posted November 3, 2004 where did you get all the LEDs from, and what brand are they?? also, did you nightshade the WHOLE taillight, or just the red lens? on a side note, whats with the saturn with the park bench on it in your sig pic Darksyde...i just noticed it Yea i see that rice poece of crap also Quote
Darksyde Posted November 3, 2004 Report Posted November 3, 2004 The front 194 LED's are APC the front 3157 and rear 3157 are all ebay purchases. I niteshaded the whole lens. And the saturn used to be mine its my nephews........so as i stated in another thread i realize by postin a pic with the satty in it i left my self open for ridicule so have at it.....dont bother me at all Quote

Darksyde Posted November 6, 2004 Report Posted November 6, 2004 It's funny that comment got me some serious flack from "saturn" lovers. I thought it was funny. I mean shit it's a saturn. I was just reading that comment and thought hey at least he knows what he has and a sense of humor exactly....someone gets it. My point was and always have been no matter how much shit you bolt to the outside of your car.....it doesnt make it faster, just goofy looking. Like a buddy of mine. He's got a 02' Celica GT. We raced together he had a respectable low 9 in the 1/8 mile. He slapped a full body kit and a wing on it and it was running mid 10's and he couldnt figure out why. Quote
