Pretty cool man! Don’t the led housings get pretty warm? I guess you used high temp paint though. Cool that you can see them in the daytime with just a little tint of blue / red.. good work, as usual. When are you moving from Ak? I want to commission you to build me some retros for my Yukon.

Idk trying for next year . This place is such a dump. Mayor took upon himself to use relief money to buy a building down the street from me and turn it into a homeless shelter.

I'm in love with these headlights...with your experience with these housings...u think it a would be a little less invasive surgery making Mled 2.0 work with these?

Anything besides a matchbox or mini h1 will be invasive surgery


Jesus Dave you and you’re lighting mods!! Lol the things you can think up just blow my mind for lighting!! I’m more than a day late and a dollar short but happy birthday!!

haha thanks buddy.
I don’t know where I get my infatuation or obsession for lights. Nobody around me has the same passion so it’s not like I was around it growing up. I just love lights , looooved the old school mini trucks with the real neon tubes back in the day.
I have so many ideas rattling around in my brain. For example I see a set of light housings and I think of 5-10 different ways of customizing them like nobody has done before. But I have to pick just one and go with it lol. Main reason why it takes me awhile for some mods, finally narrowing down to just one idea lol

So been busy with an almost full kitchen remodel. Lots of sanding and painting. Tahoe been sleeping under a blanket1F7318DA-FA6C-4873-A790-0F9106A3FFE5.jpegB60D5AAF-01DC-471C-B05B-CB8C2B478C23.jpeg BA4761D3-E76E-4302-BD3E-ED0D815D9CCD.jpeg9F21F674-BAA4-4B46-9E32-D2D8AA5AA5C2.jpeg F3E6D06F-2EAD-4F9C-9FDE-AB57E7DAC794.jpeg


Btw I suck at stain. This is what we were removing from a project 3 years ago. Sanded all the stain off and painted a flat white. Looks way better and brightens it up a ton. Still waiting on handles. Next is granite counter tops and back splash tiles

All new brakes , rotors and pads, sitting in that chair waiting for install.
