97-99 ONLY LED tail boards

**Kevlo911** · 07-17-2008, 03:26 PM

This time around I will ONLY sell the boards. No signals or reverse.

You will get boards exactly like that.

Headlights on

Brakes on

Search for more pics, Wizard and Flav both have posted many pics their tails.

Pricing is going to be $310shipped. This includes paypal fees and shipping. Everything will be shipped UPS or FEDEX. Every board is individually tested before its shipped. There are some updates from the last set of boards so these should be worth every penny.

kzoosho · 07-17-2008, 03:44 PM

O crap, Competition. Guess i better stop making them. Damn you Kevlo lol. Good luck man. Glad to see your back.

**Kevlo911** · 07-17-2008, 03:46 PM

I am only gonna make about ten of them so they are limited supply

The Russian · 07-17-2008, 03:59 PM

I would need at least 4/5 people to put down $100 deposit for me to do this. If I see enough interest I might change that number. But I will need a guarantee so I know all of them will sell. I am not changing the design, they will be the same as last time. The total cost of the boards will be roughly 250* plus shipping.

* - this price is subject to change in the next few weeks, I have the get all the pricing down first. I can say they WILL NOT cost more than $325 and no less than $250.

Just like it says in the first post....

The Russian · 07-17-2008, 04:13 PM

sorry, totally passed that part....so if i send you my tails would u put it in for me to make it look like wiz's?

Can you have the LED side of the boards coated in white silkscreen by your PCB vendor?

**Kevlo911** · 07-17-2008, 06:38 PM

I don't think I can, but I can ask. But you can't really tell there is green in the tails at all.

I will only sell the boards, I will not be installing them into the tails. I won't have the time. It is a very easy process.

The Don' · 07-17-2008, 07:34 PM

Not to be an ***, but why are the boards so expensive? All they are is a board and some led's which are very inexpensive.

gatsugansu · 07-17-2008, 08:25 PM

It takes long time to do it. I heard. So, Time=Money.

I'll probably pick up a set for my new Maxima.

BLACKonBLACK98 · 07-17-2008, 09:29 PM

having boards printed is not cheap. that makes for a majority of the cost. soldering thousands of leds is labor intensive so there has to be a decent profit margin to make it worth doing. component costs are minimal.

If you are using Sunstone, they can do the whole side in white silkscreen, OR you could get the board in red fiberglass for a minimal charge. No biggie, if I bought some from you I'd just find a way to do it myself.

Boards cost at least $300 to run. Make 10, it's about $300-$400. Make 50 it's about $500. Of course he prob doesn't want to make such an investment.

And since you probably don't want cheap Chinese eBay LEDs, it's best to use LUMILEDs or Agilent LEDs which are much more expensive per unit. The LEDs also need to be red-orange if you want it to look right, and red-orange are more expensive than straight red.

^^^^

kzoosho · 07-17-2008, 09:51 PM

Um i think he needs to look into the cost of doing led tails.

enik23 · 07-18-2008, 12:04 AM

thou they look rly nice i think 250 can be serve better invested elswhere.

Snypa · 07-18-2008, 12:32 AM

GL with the sales.Nice work anyhow.

Cool, good to know. I will look into it. I used expresspcb last time but I will check out my options.

**Kevlo911** · 07-18-2008, 06:22 AM

If you guys think it costs too much, just build them yourselves... If you think you can spend 250 on a better mod, then go ahead and do it

no problem... you've actually helped me make my decision as to which design to release first. good luck on the venture, i think they will sell better for you this time around. this is a very popular mod right now.

Sunstone is the "father" of PCBExpress

tigersharkdude · 07-18-2008, 06:20 PM

I AM INTERESTED IF THE PRICE IS RIGHT

*TunerMaxima3000* · 07-18-2008, 11:20 PM

I hope you get more interest, I have school coming up or I'd put my deposit down right now.
Maybe I'll catch it next time around ... if you relapse again lol

darklegend06 · 07-19-2008, 07:00 AM

I wish I can get a hand on one of these, but I don't have the money.

So I got a question, where can I get that knob setting things shown on the right side of the second pic? and what is it?

Good luck with the sales

ChubbieBoi · 07-24-2008, 06:57 AM

I be intrested Kevlo911, let me know about the price and when you will have it ready. I could come pick it up since im not too far from northern Florida

**Kevlo911** · 07-29-2008, 03:56 PM

So do I have 3-4 guaranteed buyers by the end of AUG?

*speedymax99* · 07-29-2008, 09:34 PM

Im down for it

*The Wizard* · 07-30-2008, 10:19 AM

Is the pricing nailed down yet Kevlo??

kzoosho · 07-30-2008, 10:43 AM

Also Kevlo, if you dont want to install these i sure can for ya. I dont mind helping out fellow orgers.

I have done tails for the 95-96 and the boards a larger and need to fill up more space. It would take him a ton more money to have the boards made and i doubt he wants to do it.

arrocha87 · 07-30-2008, 09:16 PM

^^^^ yea thats what i was thinking...... damn convert to 97-99 rear end or no LEDs.... this is a tangled web we weave! lol i guess i would still need to convert since a CF trunk comes only in 97-99. by the way did you read my last post bout the D2?

VQA32SE_L · 07-30-2008, 09:33 PM

(Intrested) Kevlo, When do u expect to have these ready? Just and est. time...
