How did you do the 8th gen third brake light?

i bought the piece from 2007 civic EX coupe. must be this model if you want the red lens with 6 snapleds (150ma) leds. if you want the clear lens with more superflux, get the 8thgen hybrid assembly. its about $65 from honda. wires need to be cut and spliced, and the piece needs to be secured. i used silicone. physically the piece fits perfect in the stock deck shape, but the clips will not line up to snap it on. so you gotta glue it. and i also put a diode on the power line to drop the voltage about 1.5v since on the housing it says max 13.5v and the alternator was giving it 14.2v so yeah. its not as bright but the leds will last longer without being overpowered.

my bad i thought that was your car. well that was a while back. anyway, i wish i had that kinda of electircal savy...but alas i do not. i really like the led them from the rear. those tails really flow with the upper brake light. it's details like that, that really make a ride special. anything new in power production or you just keeping it straight style for now?

i have some good power parts like the usual i/h/e, i know it doesnt do much but they sound nice lol. ive gone down that path a bit too far and ended up spending alot of $$ for fixing crap that broke. so id rather have reliability and focus more on looks. next summer hid retrofit is in the works.

heres a bay shot. weapon-r intake, jet coated dc header, and rsr exhaust. plus a few other lil things like denso iridium plugs and that hvs-gt box. and some lighter rims. im not really into going fast anymore. and i like focusing on the details, which is why it doesnt always look like alot of mods even tho there are things normal people wouldnt notice. ive learned so much from working on the car and even alot of stuff that didnt work was useful.
