Default Accent LED's.....

Any of you PIMPS roll with accent lighting?

Let's see it. Please let us know what you're using and where it comes from.

I did this one for a buddy in Detroit last fall.
LED's are Hyperstrips from Custom Dynamics.
Coolant 'hose' is from Killer Glass.

We flushed the coolant and put int Prestone yellow coolant to help the lighting from the green LED from the back of the coolant hose.

Did the green not show through with the orange antifreeze or did it change the color?

They both look good. I've thought about L.E.D.s but just haven't gotten around to doing it.

LEDs will be after the Arnott Air Ride. I'm looking for a yellow/orange/red fade to give it the "on fire" look. The cop up the street has ared RK withred lights and his girlfriend has a custom blue Fat Boy with blue lighting. They ride with the lights on at night. Who am I to argue with acop? (At least when sober.)

Oooh.....a challenge....Let me know when you're ready to do this. I think it would be fun to wire up some red/orange/yellow leds on independant circuits with separate fade effects. I think I still have a diagram on how to make the faders. If it works, then we can work on making a box for them and make them adjustable for the mood lighting........

My wife gave me the go-ahead on the air ride! To bad she didn't give me the money to go-ahead. I wonder if we really need homeowner's insurance?
