I'm sure there is nothing out there for my car so I would like to make a custom assembly for it. I attached some pic's of my assembly the center section is a reflector as stock but I would like to have sequential LED's working from the center out on this pannel when the brakes are applied. The outer brake lights can come on right away. I just want the sequential part to work when I first apply the brakes and not repeat when the brakes are held. Clear as mud. :hand: Any ideas on how this could be done would be grate.

This is a GT light assembly for a 70 71 Torino.

I would also like to know how to do this. There are kits for the 67-69 Camaro but nothing for the 74-77 as far as I know and I really want something more custom than buying those crappy bulbs from AutoZone. lol

I found this circuit http://www.redcircuits.com/Page105.htm I think it is what you are looking for. It says that you can drive up to 16 clusters. The 12 LEDs together are a single cluster. I would lay it all out to see how many clusters it would take to to fill in the center section. More IC's can be added if more clusters are needed. I would use two circuits one for each side.

That looks like it would work it says the lights will stay on when the brakes are applied I kind of want them to go out but the main thing was I didn't want them to keep going though the sequence I think that would bug people.

Thanks of the link there is a lot of other cool things there to.
