Haven't decided if I like the "disco led" 3rd - SRT Forums

I put them in my clear corners, hated them... then put amber led's in my corners. Put all silverstars up front last night and put in my clear 3rd brake light. I didn't have a good led for the 3rd, so I used my color-changing LED. It ALWAYS starts w/ red, so it works ok as a 3rd brake light, but not very bright. What do you guys think??? I don't plan on leaving it... but until I get something better there it is.

Only changes color when I'm on the brake for any real amount of time, so I don't think it's a big deal.

I would be good if it stayed red...not big on the other few colors. You should of gotten more vid of the rest of the led lights on the outside of the car

We're lucky I figured out the camera enough to get that much...

It was hard because it was cold, and in the garage. I couldn't back up enough to get a good view. After I get it clean and when it's nice I'll get some better pics and vid.

My wife drove it today and it's supposed to snow a bit. Hopefully there will be something left of it when she brings it back.

yikes......that thing is screaming to cops to pull you over....at least in my area they would. Looks cool though.

thepowertowin · 02-10-2006, 08:55 AM

I really don't think it will be a problem. The LED starts w/ red every time you hit it. And it stays red for about 5 seconds or so. It only changes if you have the brakes on for longer than that.. aka sitting in traffic. So if I'm in traffic, with a cop right behind me... Then maybe... but I'll use the e-brake.

asking for trouble.... rice... what have you.

lol

thepowertowin · 02-13-2006, 04:10 PM

Maybe a little.. but it rarely changes colors since I'm rarely riding the brakes for that long.

Hey cybr I'll be at the Broadmoor in Colorado springs this wed/thurs.... how is that place?

thepowertowin · 02-13-2006, 04:11 PM
