LED Matrix for Rear Fog Light Idea

diablokev87 · 09-27-2009, 05:17 PM

BTW. if anyone has an extra fog light assembly because they installed the European unit, would it be possible for you to donate it to the cause. Thanks.

So my friend Raj (RajB1031) and I installed Prototype One on in the Z today. I must say it looks pretty damn sweet. But ill let you guys judge. Ill post up a youtube video soon. But im pretty sure it looks a lot better in person.

Wiring and all was done pretty damn neat (Thanks Raj). Things worked well. However, I will be posting a picture of an "extra" clip that we found laying in the trunk. We cant, for the life of us, find out where that clip goes. I hope someone can help with that.

Any who, vids will be up later tonight. Stay tuned.

Here is the vid. Enjoy.

Thanks for the donation!!! It will be used to make the Prototype 2. Which should be the final design. Custom Fabed LED matrix, with its own controller, more stream line firmware, brake and reverse signal interrupts, uploadable animations through simple java clients, and any other ideas that the forum provides.

. Many people come up with various different ideas but only few can turn them into reality. You're one of them. Keep it up.
