Must have been a hiccup in the upload - not quite enough there to judge those LEDs by!  :D

2nd time I tried too???

Oh well, trying again on another service!

OK,


This ones working...Sorry for the crappy quality....In real life they are even brighter...

Given my PF was not quite 100%, it certainly does the job.  I've also put red LED's in the pop bumpers, but all GI & flashers are stock.  I think for anyone with a T2, the red LED's in the skull are a must.  Without having bulb covers on, the clear lens on the LED just blends into the skull, until they light up  ^^^

I'm getting some flashers (as a test) for the LAH this week.  I will try to post some videos too.

Wow, cool!  I reckon they'd look neat in an AFM as well! Thanks for sharing! #*#

Yeah I reckon it would too!

Problem is they are not super cheap, but given the write up on them is that they will last for around 11yrs on continously and use less power and nearly nil heat I think of it as more of an investment.  Its not really pimping out the machine with mods, just more of an improvement which should have been done at the factory!

I love T2...Its in my top 5 for sure...although LAH is creeping up now too! (must be an underlying Arnie thing)...Hopefully there is no more machines with him...!

Definately awesome for the CV.  I would start with the clear inserts (white), then blues and greens.  You wont be dissapointed.

Maybe Greg can offer kits for specific machines?  I learnt the hard way, don't go by the manual....Needs to be done by eye!
