Does anyone know a good manufacturer of custom LED tailights?

I have a billet bezel that I am going to have made and want an LED setup made for it.

I have had no experience with electronics but I am willing to give it a go? Any advice?

I got in contact with this guy today, emailed him last night and he replied today with his phone number. I called and talked to him for about 10 minutes.

To do my Cutlass tail lights are $125 and he can also do the 3rd brake light (I know a Mustang doesn't have one but you *may* want to add one) front turn signals, side marker lighta and even the interior lights if desired.

I mentioned you were looking for some also and he told me to give his phone number. I have no affiliation with him and have yet to do any business with him but I'll probably do so.

He's from Granite City, IL (on the ILL side of St. Louis, Mo). Contact info is:

Hey Doug, I have been looking for something like this to get tail lights done on my car. I emailed the guy too and gave me a very reasonable price. Still waiting back on some information from him before I go through with it. I'm just curious if you've done anything more or recieved anything from him? Thanks.

I called him and he told me $125 for the rear tail lights. I then inquired about adding in the 3rd brake light, front turn signals, and all 4 side marker lights. He emailed me back with a quote for $500 for everything.

I started thinking...125 for the rear tail lights. Another 125 for the fronts. $50 or so for the 3rd brake light. That's $300. So, for another $200 he'll do my side marker lights...or $50 each for them. Maybe I'll just leave the side marker lights stock.

Thats a really good deal for $125 for the back lights. And $500 for everything is worth it to keep everything looking uniform.

I'd like to go LED, but I want to make sure the beam pattern is wide enough. I don't want really bright to the rear, but barely visible once you move a bit to the side.
I like the difusers used in the Caddy tails, just gotta figure out what they use.
