GUMBALL3000 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 if i can find some company to mass produce the PCB's to the required shape - problem is as there not circular, it would still involve me shaping the PCB's to fit, so I'm actually back at square one again. another possibility is to have fibreglass inners made to take circular PCB's. Fair enough Si Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be getting first hand info. soon. This is a very complicated issue which Si deals with in a way that doesn't make it so compl;icated for us. Top job to be honest.

Guest CoolsBlue Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 well if you can get that done, like what guisgys just showed, plug and play versions, id be up for a set;) BUT! would want it on a set of pre facelift lights, not facelift... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 well, the cost would go up, as I would have to re-design the PCB's and the control circuitary... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I saw a similar thing on a vid of an old american car. It had a cluster of 3 square lights at the back on each side in a line. When he indicated left they lit up - Inner left, middle left, far left and the repeated. looked very cool. And when he came to a stop it lit up the middle of the custer of 3 followed by the 2 outer ones. and when he moved away again it did the reverse.

Guest CoolsBlue Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 (in a mr.burns voice) just give me a price:d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 (in a mr.burns voice) just give me a price:d at a ball park figure - £600-700 could be more - all depends on how long it takes to redesign the PCB etc... I *don't* think there will be a big market for them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Is this for pre-facelift? I would be interested as my car is black and i like having pre-facelift rears on. Obvioulsy not for that price though lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obvioulsy not for that price though lol. for the funky lights? as guigsy posted? Price is for either. The cost is for the time it take me to design the PCB's put it this way, took me nearly 2 weeks to come up with the final layout of the PCB's on my car!

Guest mattsupra Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 ouch how much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckler Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 why dont people understand? the amount of time it takes to design/redesign?? A big company can do this much cheaper as the mass produce/sell. Being an individual I cant do it. If poeple start complaining about cost, I'll stop making them as its not worth my time/effort. Its funny, when TS showed the first set on the V12 supe everyone seemed want a set almost regardless of price (IIRC £600 ish), but I can produce TS copies for 1/2 the price, everyone runs away at the cost! So perhaps after I've done the next set (which has sold) I'll stop, and only make them for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I do want a set of LED rears Si, but I've found more urgent (necessary) things ahead of buying these on my ToDo list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multics Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I think the price is OK really, considering they're custom-made and quality. I don't have them on my car (yet) but seen them on two or three occasions, well worth the money IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah right no sorry, i can't see what Guigsy posted as i am in work. I'm going to go for a set of the J-Spec ones off you (eventually and if your still doing them). I thought you meant you had to re-design for pre-facelift as the ones you had did was facelift. I was confusing myself lol, i couldn't figure out how it would be different to facelifts but now i know you guys were talking about something completely different. For what its worth i think you are being pretty fair with the price. I don't know how many hours go into making a set but i remember seeing the materials alone costing £100 or so. £100 of PCB and LED's is going to be a lot of work lol.
