Well I've been working on these for a little while. I see some people make them for themselves but no one makes them to sell. Well I decided to make them to sell. It does take a lot of time to complete a set.
I make mine a bit different then any others I have seen on the different forums. I don't use the cork board stuff with pre drilled holes. I use sheets of abs plastic. Cut them from my patterns, drill the holes for the led's, paint the front side of the panel with reflective paint and then clear, install and wire the leds, and coat the back of the panel and wiring with liquid electrical tape to seal the connections.
All the connections are soldered, so they will hold up to years of abuse and vibration. I use epoxy to intall the panels into the housing. Then I go all around the edges with clear silicone caulking to keep moisture out.
I will be offering different options so you can have your set custom and different then anyone elses. Some examples are wire the turns signals in a custom pattern, black out the housings, wire them to a flat plug for connection to your car, etc...
I will be offering these for sale within the next month. I am almost done with all the different style housing for all the 4th gen fbodies. I will figure out pricing for everything and the different options. I will be doing it as a core charge system since it is impossible for me to have all the different style housings on hand and it would make it much more expensive.
If you have any questions or comments feel free to post or send me a pm.
Here is a link to my photobucket account I set up for pictures of the Leds. I do not have pictures of everything yet posted but I should have them all within the next week. I will let everyone know when I add more.

I want to remind everyone I was only able to take these pics with my camera phone. I will get better quality pics for when I set up my website.
