I bought 50 LEDs off of eBay for $5. I drilled into my headlights from above and glued them in. 2 circuits: High beams and low beams. 2 LEDs per headlight, 4 per circuit, so they get 3 volts each, no resistors needed.
![]() They look 5x better in real life. I like to drive with the High Beam ones on to show off the 6GC headlights at night. I also installed a power antenna, and I decided I needed a place to put all my switches for the High and Low Beam LEDs, Power Antenna and some spares. So I made this switch panel. ![]() Here is some making/installing pics: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

The first one is for my power antenna, the second is for the low beam LEDs, third for high beam LEDs, the fourth will be for some interior lights and the fifth is a spare.
I drilled from the top, but more to the sides so its not real noticible. I didn't know about the hot glue, maybe I'll try something else if I start having problems. Thanks! -------------------- |
