Replica Escalade 3rd brake light and housing

[Blazed]

I know but he said its a tighter fit so would it look better if they were closer to the same position. Ya know?

Give me till tomorrow to answer that one

I am still in the early phases of the modification but I can confidently say I can open these up in a manner similar to the OEM. The clearances are a little tighter and it did make it more difficult. Also, there is a dimpled finish on the body of the light that is going to make my finish body work less neat, unfortunately. It will not show when the light is installed, but I do like to do as neat a job as possible.

In it for the pics.

yeah, I modded a few OEM Escalade and GM retail ones. The housing abs plastic color is different and all OEM esky uses Osram LED internal.

Pictures of the modded esky at my thread that you may have come across. http://tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43516 I can now complete one over a weekend period; got some Lumileds left to do a couple more.

I am usually on HIDPlanet thinking about more LEDs stuff.
New project: interior LED conversion. The usually festoon or T10 LED just can't match the output of a custom LEDs array. AND you get choice of color (warm, bright, or daylight white).

Did a test fit. Fits snug and tight no gaps. Bright as hell.
Only problem which isn't an issue for me cause I'm painting it is there are little dimples

Can't see in picture and it isn't that noticeable in person but its because its a rep

That's weird, yours doesn't light up all the way like mine does. I guess yours is broken...

One day man one day.

That is my pride version 1.0 = very first esky conversion on the road. Light still going great? Let me know if any issues might arises.

Yes on that slim piece above my finger it's like little indentions in the actual housing now the paint. I can feel it with my finger so it's not just the paint. But I'll just have them puddy it before paint.

Is there any difference with this one. It says its OEM which is usually better then replicas and its only dollars difference after shipping. looking to buy either one today

 

[Blazed]

That looks like the replica.. I know you're gonna be like duh it's a rep but I really think that's not OEM
