Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
I really like those lights, but I don't think they will make them for my tails, 91-92 TA/GTA lights since there aren't that many cars with them.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
Do they plan on making these for regular 3rd gen firebirds? LEDs look so hot on old cars but I dont wana make my own hackjob lights.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
I couldn't tell you, the best way to find out is by shooting them an email or by calling them.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
I should be in order to get mine soon as well. Also thinking I should start an album on your site omnipotentgoku...Super Saiyan 4 WOOT WOOT. Just unsure how I should go about showing off my car as I have a good (2-300) pictures of my car before I started modding it. Maybe I'll pick just a couple stock photos of everything and then the after pictures.
Sinister, this is the week huh. Ohh you better show me the lights with the sequential turned off, I want to see how they are since spaghetti hasn't posted any with the sequential off. Either way I'm buying a kit, just might be something others may want as well.

They look sweet, but I also have a Trans Am. I sent them an email about making them for Trans Am's...specifically '82-'84. I'll let you know what they say when I get a reply.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
so is it 2 plates per side? I'm assuming you have to modify the stock housing, correct? I'd like to see them installed to get some ides... I'm sure they are going to look great but thats a pretty chunky price for tailights!

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
No modifications what so ever, install, splice and connect new pigtails, good to go. Hardest part is going to be removing the lenses and re-installing them. Which is good for me as I am buying new housings, and already have new KLEARZ smoked lenses, all I need is these lights and I'm good to go in putting the new lenses on and installing a completely new set of tails, as I'd like to keep my stock pair.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
Alright I just made some progress...I took the lenses apart very carfully without beaking anything, cleaned & installed the LED panels, you do have to drill a small hole to keep the brake panel in place & and you have to use a tad of silicone to secure them from moving around...tomorrow I will do the wiring so 1 more day boys!

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
Here is a little video of the test run, there are in sequential mode and the brake lights run the same way when you press on the pedal...time to finish it up with the lenses on.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
Nik,
Looks amazing.....as always.
Just an FYI...If you do go air ride....they don't fit well with tubular a-arms (I called air ride, BMR and UMI and asked them). This is why I sold my UMI units.
Maybe see you on Sunday at the GM show....

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
All red can be done, but unsure if the brake light and turn light sections will be able to operate sequentially with each other. I think that would involve rewiring some of the harness? Not 100% sure so e-mail them and ask. I will be doing the whole red setup, since my cars scheme is silver main, with black and red accents.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
So heres a question; Every time you would like to switch the lights from sequental to regular, you have to open up your lights break the seal (silicone ) and tail light lenses?
or is their a way that you can change them with out taking everything apart?

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
You should be able to stick your finger or a pencil/pen/screwdriver in the light socket where the LED boards are because it's a small switch with 2 setting on there...all switches to the left are the sequentials, so it wouldn't be too hard.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
Yes the dip switch can be reached from the bulb socket hole. I know some places don't allow sequential lighting on cars, so this is a good thing just in case. If a cop tells me, no you can't have that, Ill remove my tail light right there and flip the switch haha.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
I can't imagine that actual reflector portion in our lights could be THAT much different than a Camaro (aside from the triangle, obviously) that it couldn't be slightly modded to fit. If I had a spare set of the lights (91-92s, HA!) I'd order a set to see.

Re: Digi-Tails are Here!
So how you liking your tail lights man? I didn;t like they way they told us to wire it in, so I did it a bit differently! got one side done and almost the 2nd
