Grille Light Modification.
Hey everybody,
After seeing svxcess's grille light modification at Reading I knew I needed to make my own. I bought a nice grille from a junkyard a couple of months ago and bought a multi colored LED strip off of ebay. I installed it and here is the result: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hK-oMD_I30 I have to thank svxcess and ZMan for the partially completed how-to guide which helped me with the modification. I am almost finished with the How-To document so hopefully it will be up here soon. I think this beats the stock 97' Grille. I like the fake light ones better anyways, mod or no mod. Let me know what you think! Last edited by fun173; 08-20-2011 at 12:06 AM.

Re: Grille Light Modification.
I bet you're loving this!
Just make sure cops don't see it. They'll go all Sarah Palin crazy if they see blue lights on your car.

Re: Grille Light Modification.
I drive to the National Security Agency every day.
Some of the NSA security vehicles now use these, in addition to their standard strobes and lightbars, in the sides of the tinted windows of their SUVs. Take up little room and don't obscure vision. They use the simultaneous flashing red/ blue pattern in various modes. Similar to these: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0EwE...eature=related In the video, once the light show is over, it goes back to generic vanilla; not very "Palin-esque" I have another LED mod in the works... .
