Preview LED Taillights

[AnderbrA]

Was a busy bee last night. Here is a preview of the upcoming set. Will probably get the clusters mounted this evening and lenses molded tomorrow. Hopefully they will be up on ebay by the weekend.

I used a graphite metalic, with a dash of chrome. Debating on the mesh in the center. The aluminum color gives it some contrast, but the black is more stealthy IMO.

awww yeah

[Papa Rad17]

Wow. They look good so far. I still like those black led ones best. I wont o see those on the car though.

[lonnie]

Why not paint them body color? Either the whole thing in body color or just the mesh.

The mesh could be body color, I tried an anodized red just for S&Gs but since this is an ebay set, I won't know the car color, so I am keeping it neutral.

Will post pics when clusters are mounted.

[fisdad]

After I get my Razzi kit and duals on I WILL have a set of these! WILL HAVE THEM!!

I am planning to post progress pics here. Should have LED clusters and cluster lenses on this evening.

[kwhauck]

So are you doing these? or your little bro? Wanna bring them to Belle? I'll test fit em.......lol

[AnderbrA]

No, he helped with the white set as part of a school project. I will, however, be up there for his graduation the weekend of the 20th. I have a feeling these will be gone by then though. :(

[tw0123]

How much will these be going for?

[AnderbrA]

How much will these be going for?

They will be on Ebay, but the LED sets will typically run in the $350 range.

[sleepyalero]

im keeping an eye open for this thread, cant wait. wanted these tail lights for about 4 years....

yikes... 350.... hmm

[XanderWiFi]

I'm interested to see the finished product. But if things are not resolved from the previous buys I doubt I will be investing any money.

[billytheman1188]

so u eff over people 5 years ago, go into hiding & now your back.... glws

Agreed. Love how everyone is cool with it though.....kinda funny.....

Everyone screws up sometimes...sometimes you just gotta cut someone a little slack and give them a chance to fix their mistakes

[AnderbrA]

Nobody said anybody was fine with anything. Clearly nobody read the other thread that has been going for a week or so. Read it, formulate an opinion, and move on. I will say it again only once, those handful of members who were affected by the group buy have a clear option, those who want to buy a set of these have a clear option, and those who don't, well, they have a clear option as well. Not forcing anything on anyone.

[AnderbrA]

Actually, that is about 150-200 down from back when I started. Also, simply working in terms of labor, at 30hrs, I make about $10/hr. :lol: Haven't made that since flippin burgers in high school. :panic: Those were the days.

[xXManwhoreXx]

You made 10 an hour flipping burgers.... Wtf

[sleepyalero]

yeah what the hell i made 6.50-7.25 back at mcd about 3 years ago.

but ill consider them, maybe the finished product will help :)

[happyisthealero]

looks like you need to clean up the outer edge

[AnderbrA]

looks like you need to clean up the outer edge

Very beginning stages, not even close to being finished. I have essentially only removed stock lens and painted the assemblies at this point. The edge will be nice and clean when they are done. :cool:

[AnderbrA]

Ok, here is a mock up of the clusters and red lenses. No mesh in these pics as I need to cut some more to fit. More to come....

I love the way the 2nd pic lights up. I wouldn't mind having a set of these. Can't wait to see the completed look!

[happyisthealero]

how many set do you stock??

[[ion] C2]

he doesn't stock any, he makes them to order. puts them on eBay when one is ready to go.

and you should come to ASS... you're in Midland for f's sake.. lol

[Redog]

People forget, I don't ;)

[cavaliers60]

you all do realize, you could just make these yourselves..... probably save $200-$300....

[Oldsnut]

This thread is closed until further discussion with owners due to violation of forum rules.

[Oldsnut]

OK, after discussion with other owners this thread will remain open as long as all sales go thru Ebay.


Aleromod will not be held responsible for those who lose funds that buy outside Ebay and the buyer protection they include. If you lose funds don't cry to ownership of Aleromod on this subject.

On a side note they look sexy.

[AnderbrA]

No transactions will be beld outside of ebay other than MyAlerhoGetsLow's replacement set and and the other few members from the last group buy, who I am/will be dealing with directly. Ebay, combined with paypal will provide a secure transaction method for all parties involved.

Anyways.... Well I guess, not for sure tho not promising anything.

Andrebra where do you get your leds? ebay?

[sleepyalero]

i hope you know ion was only messin around, but really.... come to A.S.S.

[Papa Rad17]

looks sick, i want them.

if you do get them you should wire them up where the trunk light is the brake and the outer one is just the running light (like the one on the trunk) it made it look a lot cleaner when i did mine, but thats just me...

[jhubbz]

Man, these look really really nice, and as much as I would like a set, I have another spin on the tail lights. Once I get my finances together, it should be a good show.

[AnderbrA]

Andrebra where do you get your leds? ebay?

I found a wholesaler, but you can get them on ebay or wherever. Right now I just use 5mm. Thought about going to 10mm, but they aren't any brighter and cost more.

[happyisthealero]

Do you have a favorite seller? and do those LEDs operate at two different voltages or do they run a constant 12v?

i might. we will see though! might just leave it alone.

You gonna be around the whole weekend? I'll be working a drift event at the Thunderdome in Sturgis on the 20th.

Will be leaving Sunday night.

[AnderbrA]

Been a few days, had a chance to work on the lights today and here are some progress pics....still a ways to go, but they are coming together nicely. :)

[tw0123]

Do you make the inner tails available to work as brake lights as well, for those of us who have done the mod, or are they strickly running lamps?

[AnderbrA]

Yes, can be done. Just need to put the same LED clusters in all 4 assemblies.

[sleepyalero]

i still want a set. lol

[fisdad]

I WANT!! But only if it's wired for BOTH inner and out tails to light up with brakes.

[a.graham52]

C2;616616']http://ion-productions.com/nod-of-approval.gif

where do you find this crap? lol

[AnderbrA]

I WANT!! But only if it's wired for BOTH inner and out tails to light up with brakes.

When I receive my new shipment of LEDs, I will be fabbing up new clusters. I will see if I can get a few extra outer ones made. The only tradeoff is that not everyone has this mod, and it requires twice the wiring/soldering for the clusters.

[happyisthealero]

Do you have a favorite seller? and do those LEDs operate at two different voltages or do they run a constant 12v?

....

[AnderbrA]

....

I dont have the specs in front of me, but the led range from 2-4v and support the 12v auto source via 470-560 ohm resistors. In regards to the taillights themselves....they will simply be plug n play with stock harnesses as long as buyers send the harnesses with their cores...otherwise they just need to be spliced into the harness.

I understand that. I can run my own wiring for the car if you can make the clusters. I'm not far from completing my current projects and I would guess that within 2 months tops I will have the money for my set.

one resistor for each individual LED? are they wired in series or parallel?

[AnderbrA]

Parallel and I typically will use 1 resistor for no more than 3 LEDs.

[[ion] C2]

Updates?

Can you do them with red overall lenses to look more factory?

[AnderbrA]

Update...the set is complete. Will be throwing on ebay tonight or tomorrow. Have pics of the inners after paint and test fitting. I will have some pics of the outers and the auction link soon. I was able to modify the edge to eliminate the trim, making for a much, much cleaner look. Wiring is plug n play.

Enjoy.

god i want those so bad..

now in a set, do they come with all four? or just the inner two? cause i notice in the pics your only showing the inner tails, and no outer.

[AnderbrA]

Set would consist of all 4 assemblies. The outers are about 90% complete. Still need to trim and paint border, should have them complete tonight and pics of all 4 ready.

[AnderbrA]

Few more pics here

thats sexy

[falloutboy]

Ok, the europe guy has to ask. Do you incorporate the fog lights we have in the rear lights?
What about flashers and reverse?

Got some data on the brightness? candela values prefered.

[AnderbrA]

Blinkers and Reverse are stock. Each running light rings use 24 8000mcd Red LEDs. Outers have additional 16 8000mcd LEDs for brake light centers.

This has been the same LED configuration I have used for I would say 95% of all sets I have made.

I am not familiar with rear fog configuration of the Aleros.

Since this is a hobby and I am not familiar with all lighting laws, I will say these are for "Off-Road & Show Use". ;)

[happyisthealero]

show us pics of your tail lights

[2.2ecotecalero]

i think when i get back from my deployment im gonna get a set of these they look to nice

[DRM Racing]

Tick tock tick tock.........still waiting and have not been notified at all, since 2009ish.

[DRM Racing]

im still waiting too. ive also emailed him as well. either way i hope he is ok

[NickAlero2000]

Looks like this guy comes and goes as he pleases still. I'm ashamed to see that he pops back in to say he's still selling sets, and yet he hasn't made things right with the original group buyers.

And for those of you who remember me, hi and hope all is well. I drive this now!

[Papa Rad17]

I would guess noone should be expecting a set of tails anytime soon. seems he has made another dissapearance.

[03glgold]

It has been delayed slightly by funds and the fact that some of the stuff that I need is 180 miles away at home but I am working on making some...When I get everything together we will see how it goes

[xXManwhoreXx]

Lovin the new whip nick! Any more pics?
