I don't have the LED pods yet. I am just getting the covers, which is brighter light via the stock system. Did you DIY the LED pods? Do they make white ones?

It's nowhere near as bad as it looks in the camera shot. I'll show you next time we're at a meet. It just looks like red light in-person.

Yes they are LED pods. Yes they make white. Yes it was a very easy DIY. After a couple days, the backings of the LED pods stopped sticking so I used a little dab of loctite on each of them and haven't had an issue since.

hehe yeah I'm familiar with them and they do look good. Just your picture makes it look crazy! :icon17:

dmhenderson 07-08-2013 08:42 AM

It has to do with the way the iphone camera auto-adjusts to ambient brightness. I have the same problem when I try to take pictures of my headlights.

4r3s 07-08-2013 08:55 AM

wait so you're sayng pods. don't they make LEDs you can directly replace the bulbs with? I thought there was a vendor on here selling all sorts of colors. when I hear pod I think of these things LED Pod Lights - Auto, Motorcycle, boat, truck, trailer, RV, RC Hobby, and so much more. Expect only the Highest quality LED Pod Lights..

Are they battery powered or did you wire them in? or am I lost?

eastwest2300 07-08-2013 08:58 AM

Its the actual plastic clear piece that covers the actual bulb or LED thats there. Its a clearer piece that allows more light to pass through.

I hope he has his floor pans bolted down real good, that's enough NOS to blow off the bolts!

I get the feeling this guy is a little on the "wacky" side from what I'm reading. A bunch of armchair mechanics have already pointed out that the way that harness is set up, it could possibly result in severe back injury.

Here's the reddit thread if anyone's interested:

What's the point of that? lol, having an exhaust dump before the bumper makes it tremendously louder in the cabin

Need some help from my Maryland dudes.

Anyone want to help deliver a spare to 4r3s?

Im passing through Frederick on Thursday. Would anyone be able to meet up with me in the morning to take my spare tire to the next Columbia meet?

dmhenderson 07-08-2013 01:37 PM

Meet up with you on thursday? I should be able to. That's not far from me.
It'll depend on time though.

Itd be in the morning...like 8-9. I can even meet your office most likely as long as that's cool with him. I can also go down 81 if that puts me any closer to you. Otherwise I pretty much cant get him a spare until like September hahaha. #TOOBUSYFOSTUFF

eastwest2300 07-08-2013 01:55 PM

Cody... that exhaust in my house, im gonna toss it soon... like really soon.:rofl2:

I'm in Germantown which is 15-20 minutes away but rush hour traffic will be nasty. I can't meet you in Frederick because it'd take me another hour to get back to work. If you want to fight your way to Germantown, I can meet you in my work parking lot or something.

Wasn't actually planning on going to Columbia this weekend but whatever.

Doesn't have to be this weekend. IDK this may just get too confusing. What about Sunday? That's when I will be rolling through Maryland again.

eastwest2300 07-08-2013 02:15 PM

Its gotta be by the 28th at the latest, the new roomie is moving in.. soo on the 29th, Im tossing it..
