Inner tail light mod units

Would thickness of the wire change anything?

hi joe tried angel eyes not bright enough but the smd rings are better but its the same problem close up look great but from a distance not as bright but i would say better than t10 bulbs down to the reflection not as good as outers with been deeper and more reflection i put the ring facing inwards so they reflect off the silver inner other wise all you see is a ring of dots from leds

Are the lights easy to split? Which angel eyes did you use? Yeah im going to put them in backwards to they reflect better too.

Get some pics too!

Any idea what gauge wire you used? I used something quite thick

Measured the wire I used. Outside (including shielding) is 2.35mm (0.092519685 inches) thick.
Sorry don't know how many awg that is.

Does wire thickness effect brightness?

This might be an option for wiring. They have tapped into the plug that goes into the main outer light

[JoeDarKa]

And they fit in?

[biglad65]

yes anything from 75mm inner edge to 110 outer edge

[JoeDarKa]

How did you split and re-seal them?

where the red lens joins the chrome round bit in middle there is a little gap that the light shines out of if not red

[JoeDarKa]

Ah got you now! I wonder if putting 2 led rings in would make it brighter! 

[biglad65]

one is bright enough its just the same old thing the further away you go the dimmer it becomes just will not hold the light due to the reflection situation the ones tim as done are diff to ours so i asume thats why hes are holding light
