OK, I ready to do more conversion with a new batch of LumiLeds that came in. Still haven't receive enough demand for the Esky PCB circuit to be made as a batch.

Full conversion = $220
UPS ground shipping = $25 or your choice of carry/rate
Discount = $10 if you post your ride on CadillacForum to 'rub-it-in' their faces!

I had a couple people message me over there for "more info" so I'll link them to you.

yeah, just point them to this thread or my Esky post on HIDP. Just watch out for CF admin to lock your account if it has anything to do with my Esky conversion ;)

Want to get this setup soon. Let me know if I'm missing anything and if these prices seem right. Doesn't seem like there's all that much to it.

Esky third - $175
Conversion to full LEDs - $250

I'll need to paint the brake light because my Tahoe is black granite metallic. Anyone have any idea as to what it may cost to get it painted? Not sure how much that color would affect the price.

Appreciate the help.

Sorry of the delay guys; haven't been on TYF at all.
Been busy with other LED projects for private use ;)

I have replied to all my TYF's PM. If I don't check it, then just hit me up over at HIDPlanet.

Getting it on with more conversion time on warm days.
1. Set up appointment by paying a Paypal invoice.
2. Shipping out just your Esky LED light section w/ tracking number
3. After receiving the light, I will ship-return it in about 1week.

OEM Escalade 3rd Brake LED light only http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=587599#post587599

Replica with spoiler: http://tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46755

Get them while supply last for a FULL LED conversion. I got some LumiLEDs tubes left for a couple more. Then prices and timeframe might have to change again for a made-to-order status. Now, I can finish a unit over a weekend period. After all my on-hand LumiLEDs supply is gone, then the timeframe will be extended to more than a week for me to get the required electronic + LED.

Sorry for clogging up fireman297 thread. I was just commenting on the visibility of the LEDs. We do constructive criticism on HIDPlanet often because beginner HID retrofitters usually want to know how to correctly align their projectors' cutoff output. People who have HID projectors retrofitted knows what I'm talking about and are keen on the matter to perfect lighting; similar to aftermarket stuff fitment = gaping and bolting.

So from my experience when working with OEM unit, there are 46 visible LEDs on the light and just about a few that will need more care to make the output looks correct; these will require VISIBLY checking the light output when powered-on and if tweaking is needed before final sealing up the unit. There are a few 'patent pending' things I also do that will help to ensure the converted-light can survive reliably. EVEN the Cadillac OEM light has design flaws which many on CF have experienced = repair/replace with a new unit when the OEM LEDs stop working right.
