Grey or black, how much would they run? And are you able to paint emblems yet?

Wow ! A lot of light, nice job.

UPDATE:
I'm working on a few more of the 56 LED version 1.0 now... I'm out of PCB's after these are finished... waiting on my order for more.

Up next OHC LED panel version 2.0 with 48 led's for those of you who don't want to burn your retinas when looking at the OHC lights.

UPDATE FOR 2-27-11

I have TWO 56 LED OHC panels completed, ready to ship. :)

It's been a long weekend in the garage, but these will be the last ones for a little while... still waiting on more PCB's.

I also have my Prototype #0001 which has the original 64 led setup.

NEW PICS OF V2.0 48 led model!!

I have ONE of these completed, ready to ship TODAY & I've got ONE more that's in process.

Little update also,
Due to a recent lost package (thanks usps!) I'm now requiring shipping insurance on all packages valued $20 or more. It's a $1.75 - $2.50 increase & I know it sucks, but I can't afford to keep letting the mail lose my hard work & charge me for the privilege. At least with insuring the packages I'll have a better chance at getting something back.

It's basically a plug-n-play swap, everything is assembled, soldered, sealed & ready to install.

Here's a link to my OHC mods pics... it includes my instructions for the install process. It's really pretty simple; remove the ohc, unplug the wiring connector, remove/loosen the torx screws that hold on the OEM bulb assembly, cut the 3 wires going to the bulb ***'y, drop in the led panel, strip-insert-screw in the wires to the panel, install 2 longer screws (included), tighten the other torx screws, re-install, enjoy.

I do offer this warning:

Do NOT look directly into the led panel when it's on, you'll see spots for quite a while afterwards.

Drop me a PM if you'd like to get one.

If I hadn't already done my own version, I'd be all over this

Looks great

Don't hesitate to buy from Terry, he's a stand up guy

BUMP

I'm still making the ohc led panels. I've got a few in production now, but I can push them to the top of my priority list if anyone needs one.

All Expo's have an OHC with temp and compass. Yes, you can make it work, it's simple. The computer for the OHC is self contained, it doesn't rely on the vehicle, just an externally mounted temp sensor

^ what he said.

All you need to do is make sure to get the actual temp sensor, it installs under the hood & is required for the temp function to work properly.

There should be a how-to here on how to calibrate the compass too.

If you're not using the auto-dim mirror, there are only a few wires that need to be connected & it's nothing too major, just power, ground, temp sensor...

O lol thats cheaper than I tought. Im gonna have to ****** up an OHC and buy me some of these LEDs. The only way itd be cooler is if they had the ability to move around and do cool stunts if ya know what I mean.
Can I special order one of these in different colors buggman?
