I finished the tail lights... it was actually pretty easy.
I started afixing the door panels today. I'm hoping tomorrow to have the on. You have to build up quite alot of bondo to get it to the height needed on the top side of the door. I saw this when larry did it on his car, and decided to screw in peices of wood to the door to start off with it close to the height needed. it is much easier and faster. I also didnt want to waste bondo. I will seal the wood with elmers glue.. its what botanists and gardeners use to seal their wooden structures that get watered every day to keep it water proof.
This pic has both sides.. copy and save it to your HD to see the full pic. this site does not expand to fit.
The way I have it laid out right now is as so:
Braking: center lights go full circle
Running light: outer lights have outer half lit. (this should be full but there are only 2 lights in it?)
Turn: yellow outer light blinks
Backup: center white lights on solid.
I don’t know if the outer lights are supposed to be the outer half, or turned so that the top half lights. I have seem videos online that seem different.
This is how I ended up wiring it. I am not sure that I have the sequence perfect as videos online seemed to contradict each other about what the proper sequence is supposed to be for braking, running lights, etc.
Anyways, the left light is an OUTER light (4 wires). The inner lights get 3 wires.
In this pic, from left to right we have:
1. Solid green
2. Green with black stripe (I think turn, cant rem)
3. Green with yellow stripe (brake)
4. Yellow with black stripe (ground)
1. Green with yellow stripe (brake)
2. Red with black stripe (reverse light)
