We do custom LED projects for those unique applications.

Here's a Ferrari 348 with custom taillight fixtures and custom LEDs.

A gentleman from Belgium wanted to surprise his uncle with custom running lights for his 356 for Christmas last year. However a 6 week project turned into 6 months but turned out quite unique.

Here's a picture of the hood-mounted lights.

The lights turned out to be quite bright. We used 19 soft white power LEDs with focusing lenses. To dissipate the heat the LEDs were backed with a large heat sink and the switching converter placed on a separate PCB.

On the non-LED side, I designed a small motor controller for my model railroad club. This controller is used to power animations on the layout.

BTW, if you happen to be near Ambridge, PA during the weekends in December, check out the Ohio Valley Lines layout at our open house.

Do you have anything that could be used as headlights in the 914 front turn signal pod? Doesn't have to be plug and play, but I'm seeing what's out there.

Felix's car as an example..

Thanks for asking although I haven't done much with high power headlight applications. Applications like these require an entire fixture to work correctly. The LEDs that I do are mainly low power drop-in boards to existing fixtures for marker, brakes, and turnsignals.

The only thing I did was some Marchal running lights with LEDs for a 356. This was a one-off to see if I could do it. It worked out pretty well although as a headlight it doesn't have that sharp upper cut-off like modern headlights have.
