I see some members posting projects they've finished recently, and thought I would put these up. My buddy and I completed two cars yesterday, mine and Tim's. It's still in testing phase, but members interested in doing this mod, please PM me.

I am currently giving scheduling priorities to members that I've worked with (since many of you have asked me about this mod).

Anyway, enjoy these pics -- sorry I am such a crappy photographer, lol. Not that it's important, but only the last pic has my license plate lights on, because I tried to capture the brake lighting instead of having the camera focusing on the white light. Also edited the pic to remove Tim's license plate number.

The one on the right is a LCI. Mine is on the left, retrofitted with Bruce's cable.
