Lightweight plastic headlight with Halogen bulb and built in LED park/turn signal covered with jeep stainless headlight grill. Allows use of orig park/turn opening for brake duct while retaining the park/turn lights. I've gotten questioned about it by a lot of people who say they want to do it. Anyone ever seen it done in 2005 or before?

[WS6]

ok John, how the heck did you get the LEDs in there? That's pretty wicked looking but can you see the turn signal with the headlights on?

[PonchoJohn]

Yeah John. I did in 2003. I designed it for one of my buddy's cars.
Of course, I'm also one of the guys who has asked you how you did it, and with which materials.
I guess it's all reciprocal. Ya get it... cars.. wheels.. okay, I'm a dork.

I put a 70's Camaro console into my Mustang for awhile. Never saw that before. I had to give it back to my dad when he got his car done though. Too bad I didnt snap any photos, it fit perfect.

Trey, The headlights are made with the LED's in there by some company in Germany. Yes you can see the blinkers with the lights on. Poncho John, You're a man with vision! Wish I'd thought of it then! I might have saved a bunch of money and time replacing pads, turning rotors and bedding in the brakes.
Z06killer, I've got an extra Firebird console and a 66 Stang and might just "copy" your idea. Don't worry I'll give ya credit if I do it! Hmmm Then I could use a B&M shifter thats made for those consoles right? I really don't like the stock auto floor shifter.

John...Thats the kinda of mod.I am talking about!!!!!
Way cool and everyone wants it. JOHNS THE COOL KID!!!

[NOT A TA]

LOL Don't know if I've ever been the cool kid before, THANKS! I love to modify stuff, someday I'm going to try to count all the mods I've done to my Firebird. Here's one I'm almost finished with. Shift light in a stock TRANS AM Tic-Toc tach where the clock originally was,then installed in a non tach gauge pod. Just need to mount the control module and finish up the wiring.

Ranch and pizza go hand and hand. Thank you for that invention. I invented ketchup sandwiches and tatertot sandwiches.

As far as cars go, I have a few ideas but nothing that I have followed through with. Like making a 3rd brake light out of the Buick logo plate on the rear bumper of the Skylark.

I guess its still a west coast thing?

[Young Gun]

those little bottle holders on the shopping carts? i sent the idea to the randalls grocery store chain about a year before the popped up everywhere...wish i had gotten a patent for that idea

[southernfriedcj]

I invented the vanilla-bacon milkshake. The bacon must be very crispy. It rawks!

[1FstChevy]

That L.E.D. headlight retro fit is pretty snazzy and so is the L.E.D. shift light in the stock gauges!

I may be able to stake the claim of first **LATE** 2nd Gen Pro-Tourer with 18"s and BIG BRAKES thats built with performance put ahead of show! All I've genuinely seen so far either has a stock drivetrain or is lacking modern brakes! (All thats left now is to bolt on all those goodies ;) )

[PonchoJohn]

Not A TA- while I'm stealing ideas... where'd you get the carbon tape?
It sure looks nice on your dash!

[Z06killinSBF]

I just came to the realization, this guy is just trying to steal everyones ideas!!! Nice try buddy.

J/K.... but ranch and pizza do rock. Ever try chipotle mustard? Very nice!!

These 3 bulb ones for old VWs have been around awhile...
They look good on German-Lookers going for the Porsche styling.

I had the first LS1 Magnacharger "hotrod" kit since I helped them come up with the kit. First to put it in a 1st gen Camaro too. ;)

now there are 100s of them.
