Get back out on the floor (learn first if needed). It is pretty cool how much attention you can get from the ladies when you can dance.

Altezzas on the SVX would look pretty bad, maybe with C/F inlay... but still, no thanks. I have seen riced SVX's before... all stickered up with stuff that isn't even made for the car. Talk about an easy way to piss me off. I don't think they should have put them on the lightning, looks terrible. There are too many cars produced now that are "pre-riced" from the factory... and they all look bad (in my opinion).

Would something like this work? I wonder how it would look.

It would be nice if someone offered replacement bumber covers (at a reasonable price).

if i'm dancin', the ladies pay attention, and even buy me drinks in an effort to get me to stop.

i hope i never see those LED washer squirter lights on an SVX - i'll lose it.

Oh man, no kidding... those would need to be yanked off and stuck into the owner's skull!

At least it's attention from the ladies, right?

With more drinks, aren't you more likely to let loose?

Unfortunately, I saw someone in an SVX with them. I looked over from my car and laughed at him. The other unfortunate part was that he wasn't taking very good care of his SVX. There were rust spots and scratches all over.

Damn those punks wearing their backwards pants and baggy hats...

I have a pair of LED squirter. I took out the LEDs though. I wanted a nozzle that sprays in a mist rather than the two streams that SVX came in. No other choices....

I think the LED squirters look good if you wire them to your turn signals. So basically, they're OFF all the time, unless you're turning. Orange LED of course. That would be kinda cool in my opinion.

The Mach I hood scoop on my 70 Mustang has amber turn signal repeaters, but they face the cabin, not forward. They are great for letting you know when you left you turn signal on for a few miles

In our SVX store.....in the misc section.
Some LED units to possibly use as alternative
braklites.

Maybe on my race car tow vehicle which used to be an ambulance but those on an SVX: NEVER!!!

Those are what we have in the tail lights.

You are correct. You have to gut the housing to fit them inside the taillights.

I'm upgrading a set for an SVX after the holidays. I'll make Lwin come up and photgraph a How-To while I do it.

Hey Lwin and Doug -

I checked out the link you sent me a while back to where you bought the LED lights you gutted for your set up. I saw they also had some round ones available, like you see for the tail lights on newer semi trailers, etc.

I was wondering if those would fit in the SVX lense? You know, so when you hit the brakes 2 or 3 LED circles of light would light up, kinda like Altezzas, but with LED.

Cool idea, but wasn't sure of the measurements - did you guys ponder this or just go for the others because they matched the stock shape better?
