Hate to steal a thread but I installed my sequential leds and only the right turn signal works. both lights come on when i turn the lights on. Only the right one works for braking and turn signal.

DIM67 - i got those on the list lol...i just pissed away 300 bucks on sub/amp for my truck so maybe next month haha. thanks for the heads up. Put a dc ammeter on my batt neg. cable the other day. With the car off, headlights on, its pulling like 12 amps. Thats with the led tails, so I know its pretty much entirely the headlights. How much more efficient are the HID's?

mustdoc - Yes, think it's hands down one of the best things I could do to a driven classic! Much much safer. Thanks for the 6x9 idea! I wonder if I can make it work, someone retrofitted ac to my car before I got it. As for the sequencing when the brakes are applied, mine go to full bright. No blinking at all...not unless I have the turn signal on. That is strange, because here's a quote from their page:

"Exclusive "Smart Signal" technology prevents unwanted sequencing during braking and only Mustang Project has this patented feature."

And this one from the ebay auction I got mine from Ebay Auction LED lights

"Our Patented technology allow these taillight lamp kits to work properly during braking. When the brake is hit all sections go to full bright! Don't risk you car to funky sequencing effects when you hit your brakes. Our kits only sequence when you activate the turn signal -- like they are supposed to. No other company can provide this feature because we invented the technology and we Patented it."

Yesss I'm seeing that more and more every day....Bob is recognized worldwide and his music is loved by so many different cultures. Did you know that his abum "Exodus" was named album of the century by Time magazine? That came as a huge shock to me. There's regular reggae music....and then there's Bob Marley....they just cant touch him!

sxynerd - thanks man! it's all bark no bite though...trust me lol

eZ - hmmmmm sounds like a loose connection somewhere. I would go back and check the turn signal flasher, the ground to the new electronic module, the grounds on the lamp socket in the taillight housing too. Also if you have a little DC multimeter, you could easily check for voltage or lack of. Post back, let us know what you get.

I'm so stoked over your video and pics that as soon as I can get my car out of the shop from the mountain of repairs this is what I will be saving up to get as my first upgrade.

That and buying some Dynamat Extreme to make it a bit quieter inside.

I already have 2 jobs, not including the seasonal one I do for the various concerts around here.

I plan on doing a lot of upgrades just taking the "long term" approach of several years.

MrBob- I dunno about the efficiency of the lights....never checked....got the one-wire alternator but underdrive pulleys, so at idle they only dimmed when the sub was maxxed out....not a prob for now because the sub amp was fried about a month ago. I can tell you that I can see MUCH better at night with the h.i.d.s (and the looks on people's faces when they are first fired up are priceless). If you want the amp draw (here comes the shade tree part) just tell me how to measure it. I have a meter, just not sure how or where to measure. Forgive me.

They also have the front turn leds and gauge lights.....so far the only incan. bulb left in/on my car is the dome. (And, yes, the headlights are h.i.d.)
What kind of HID's do you have? are you running an h4 socket?
