Ground Signals

[dahanger]

I was looking around and saw this: AfterBurner LED Ground Signal Kit | PlasmaGlow

You think this could be done with just some plain old neons?

I'm not sure about neon lights, but if they're anything like florescent lights they don't really like to be turned on and off a lot, especially in the cold. LEDs would bet a better more robust way to go.

Silly me. I was thinking LED but typed neons. Yeah definitely a strip of weatherproof LED's would work. Do you or anyone else happen to know where to find out how to hook them up to the turn signals?

If you plan to run them to your turn signals, be prepared toruna LOT of wire.

[dahanger]

Wouldn't it just run to the front or where exactly would I connect a wire to my turn signals?

Playing with your blinkers isn't incredibly straight forward. The resistance of the bulbs determine the blinking speed. If you wire the LEDs in series or parallel it will effect the blinking speed. So, there is no real easy way to do it.

I wish I had the instructions for the kit they advertise to see how they do it. there is one video I've seen thus far that shows it off, but is a kia forte owner. Looks pretty seamlessly. Doesn't have any type of lag on the blinker.

Looks like they went for a straight tie in.

LED's don't use much power, so it may not have any effect on the signal speed. otherwise you could consider switching to led bulbs in the housing and just run a resistor to make it all match up.

Okay so then it could be done and for a whole less then? The other features like brakes and reverse light would be cool but takes too much time.

Brake and reverse lights would actually be easier to do.
